A-Rod feels Tagovailoa needs to step down.

During Aaron Rodgers’ Tuesday appearance on the Pat McAfee Show, he spoke about Tua Tagovailoa landing in the concussion protocol.

Aaron Rodgers looks concerned over Tua Tagovailoa

Aaron Rodgers mentioned via Fox News, “Now it’s probably time to maybe consider shutting it down when you’ve had some episodes. I don’t know if that’s going to be in the thought process. But, as competitors, that’s the last thing you want. But, at some point, you do have to start thinking about your cognitive function later in life and the after-effects you might be dealing with.”

The Packers’ starting quarterback also stated he does not believe Tua Tagovailoa should perpetually hang up the cleats. He wishes the 24-year-old athlete a complete recovery. Rodgers mentioned his admiration for the Dolphins quarterback’s personality on and off the football field.

The concern arose after Tua Tagovailoa entered the concussion protocol for the second time. Following the Monday game against the Packers, Tagovailoa met with medical experts and was experiencing symptoms. But when did he sustain another traumatizing hit?

When did the Dolphins QB1 sustain the concussive hit?

The Dolphins hosted the Packers at the Hard Rock Stadium in the NFL’s Christmas Day games. However, during the second quarter, Tua Tagovailoa was tackled by the opposition, which knocked him to the ground. The quarterback collided head-first. However, during the Monday press conference, Mike McDaniel said he’s not sure if he took a concussive hit in the Packers’ 26-20 loss.

The franchise is now in a concerning situation if they lose in Tagovailoa. Since concussions are not taken lightly, the franchise could miss out on the athlete. Miami has two crucial games that will decide their playoff fate. However, there seems to be no timetable for his return.

Will the Dolphins QB1 be able to compete in the upcoming game against the Patriots? It is subject to witness.
