Another concussion for Tua and it looks bad. The NFL seriously needs to investigate the Dolphins AGAIN on how they let Tua play last week against the Bills.
A doctor I worked with that did work with ex-NFL players shared that concussions are cumulative. Tua having had one the game before, made him more likely to have one today. And going to be even more likely to have them.
They need to be very careful with him moving forward.
He shouldn't have been playing this game.
Why TF was Tua playing again so soon? I was shocked to hear that he was out there tonight.
Pete is much more cautious about his players than any other coach in the NFL, and probably College. The Seahawks take care of their players, and want them to have lives after football. Pete also realizes that it's a lllllloooonnnnggg season, and not to "put all of his eggs in one basket."The report on Tua is that he "didn't have anything more serious than a concussion." He flew home yesterday. These types of hits being cumulative is right, what TwistedHusky said above. Dolphins coach Mike McDaniel said last night's hit was exacerbated by the hit he sustained during the Bills game.
I wonder if Eskridge's concussion last season was a lot worse (being that he missed a bunch of games) or if the Seahawks were being considerably more careful in comparison. I don't know all the details -- just wondering out loud.
It can be un-settling and I think it was a lot worse than we know. I suffered a concussion from being rear-ended (uh-huh huh huh Butthead laugh) by another car while I sat stopped at an off-ramp. 10 days of fuzziness and then tinnitus set in after that and never left. Psychologically tinnitus can really suck to get used to but I was able to overcome it and accept a new normal of ringing in my ears. But it can bring about depression and paranoia like crazy and your sleep can be awful.The report on Tua is that he "didn't have anything more serious than a concussion." He flew home yesterday.

This is deplorable.Dolphins aren't sold on Tua as a long term solution at qb so they probably don't give a shit what happens to him
