Former WWE Superstar Turned Concussion Expert Foretold Tua Tagovailoa’s Higher Risk of Playing Against Cincinnati Bengals

The NFL is buzzing after the brutal hit Tua Tagovailoa face during the Week 4 game. After taking a slam from the Bengals’ defense, the Dolphins QB1 had some trouble after the play. Tagovailoa had some head trauma issues since their last game against the Bills, but he still came to put a fight. However, an ex-WWE star and neuroscientist saw that coming and shared stern words over the improper use of concussion protocol.

Tua Tagovailoa seemed disoriented on the field on Sunday due to what seemed to be a head injury. The Dolphins still gave him the go-ahead to participate in Thursday night’s game. Unfortunately, he sustained a second, much worse blow to the head. Dr. Chris Nowinski, Ph.D., warned about the troubles the QB could face.

Dr. Chris Nowinski, Ph.D. mentioned, “If Tua takes the field tonight, it’s a massive step back for [concussion] care in the NFL. If he has a 2nd concussion that destroys his season or career, everyone involved will be sued & should lose their jobs, coaches included. We all saw it, even they must know this isn’t right.”

The former WWE Star’s prediction came true. Dr. Nowinski called it a disaster in a follow-up tweet. He also urged everyone to pray for Tagovailoa, saying that two concussions in five could end careers and even kill someone.

Chris Nowinski also went through severe head trauma in his WWE run. Wrestlers would kick him hard enough that he blacked out for six seconds. He then changed his trajectory and focused on studying brain injuries and concussions.

Tua Tagovailoa hospitalized after the brutal sack

After the Bills game, Tua was into the concussion protocol. But he came back to fight against the Bengals. But Tagovailoa again hit the back of his head after a sack by the Bengals defense, and videos showcase that his arms and fingers seized up immediately. As per ESPN, before halftime, the Dolphins mentioned the QB1 was conscious, but they moved him to the hospital.

In a new update by the Miami franchise, they mentioned Tua Tagovailoa would fly back home with the team after being cleared from the University of Cincinnati Medical Center. It is not good news for the Dolphins. They will not have their best guy because of unfortunate head injuries.
