I can't believe he wants to go back out there. He's lucky he's not a vegetable already. I've seen all three of his concussions. He's nuts if he would risk his brain any further.
Yep it’s sad. Where is his family? He has basically lost all motor functions in his hands after each one .I can't believe he wants to go back out there. He's lucky he's not a vegetable already. I've seen all three of his concussions. He's nuts if he would risk his brain any further.
Truly sad.Lost a lot of respect for the the Dolphins brass for letting him back on the field
He's gonna need it to buy diapers and pay someone to spoon feed him Gerbers.Why not keep going?
He’s already a mess, but this way he gets his money.
There’s ways to get most of his money maybe not all of his money.Why not keep going?

Not to mention a severe hip injury in college that nearly ended his career. I know his dad was a bit of a lunatic when it came to pushing his sons to be QBs. Not sure his family brings the best advice.I can't believe he wants to go back out there. He's lucky he's not a vegetable already. I've seen all three of his concussions.

Well they're also thicker helmets, so even that 20% margin is probably erased by a greater chance for head to head collisions.I'm a little surprised the NFL doesn't make wearing a guardian helmet mandatory for someone in Tua's situation.
Then again, I also read that a guardian helmet only reduces the risk by 10% if one player is wearing it. 20% if both players in a head to head collision are wearing them. I would have guessed it to be a little higher than that. Maybe there are better results being reported elsewhere.
I hope he doesn’t think he will be immortalized by dying on the field. He needs to wake the **** up.When Tua says getting an ankle injury is the same risk as getting your 4th concussion, the league needs to step in.
Not to mention his press conference quote "This game will be the death of me"
Sounds like he's in a perfectly logical state of mind. /s
I agree. He's got $167 in guaranteed money. Tua could easily find an independent doctor who says he needs to sit out the rest of the year and probably more. The Dolphins could just decide to give him an injury settlement and move on at some point. But Tua wants to play.There’s ways to get most of his money maybe not all of his money.
I'm not a fan of that HC either. For a supposed offensive genius who has nothing else to offer as a coach, he failed miserably without Tua. He had no answers.I think Coach McWeirdo would actually win a lot of people over by refusing to play Tua.
Yes, apparently there's a new style helmet that is safer than other helmets with the guardian helmet thing added to them. But a lot of players will not wear the new style helmet because they are used to the feel of their old helmet and do not want to switch.Well they're also thicker helmets, so even that 20% margin is probably erased by a greater chance for head to head collisions.
Could still be PresidentHe's gonna need it to buy diapers and pay someone to spoon feed him Gerbers.
