Not watching but googled it given your post.
Some guy Chris Nowinski was ripping the league pregame for letting Tua play. And then that happens.
He shoulda never been cleared to return in last weeks game. They can say back injury all they want but those symptoms he displayed last week definately weren’t consistent with a back injury
Ive felt the league had been doing so much better in this regard. Seems odd that they let Tua slip through.
Didnt see that one either but my brother told me about it. As i say above it seems weird that it slipped through. In the games i watch they’ve been all over those obvious concussion situations.

Can never have nice things man. I am sick to my stomach.
I’ve unfortunately had 5 concussions in my life. My last one I hit the back of my head playing hockey. Apparently my arms were raised in the air in the same fashion, the fencing response. Scary stuff. It was the last time I played competitive hockey.
Maybe concussion #5 is why I make Dano memes.

I’m not sure of all the specifics but last week he claimed he wasn’t concussed but had a back injury. Maybe he did but I wonder if he got over on the system and then this. I really think the culture of playing with any injury that doesn’t make you incapable of dragging yourself onto the field is a big problem.

Even if he legit wasn’t concussed how do you clear him to play with a ‘back’ issue so bad it caused him to stagger like he was concussed?
It’s the sick part of the NFL. Man up no matter what. The worst part is the players have allowed this to happen.
As an oft injured guy maybe he was just trying to prove he can stay on the field? Especially after finally breaking out as a player. Thats where the team and league need to step in though.

The league needs to stop playing Thursday night games. Keep the Thanksgiving games but make sure the teams that play are coming off a bye week.

Revenue. Revenue. Revenue. It's why the NFL has Thursday night games.

Aren’t there league spotters as well? Or am i mixing up leagues?
Again i feel incidents like this the player is always pulled. And this one is as obvious as you can get.

They apparently do. They put him in protocol and somehow he "passed"
Or only during bye week season where both teams have the week prior off.
Not that i really care about thursday night games.

To be fair maybe he did? Maybe they need a flat rule like if you wobble you are out? But that is subjective. And to be sure fans will get bent if player x is pulled for what could be a guy tripping over a pile of players or something.
Its money in their pockets as well.

No, I'm not serious.
Y'all think our med staff is bad, what about whatever the f*** happened to let Tua play tonight.
Jesus.
