That's what I'm baffled with as well. He could've easily just slid there and avoided any contact. I get that he may not have known exactly where the 1st down marker was there, but it seems like a rather unnecessary risk taken by a player that more than anyone in the NFL should be looking to avoid contact at all costs.
Just sucks all around as he's such a good young player. Unfortunately, he probably really needs to consider retirement at this point...or whatever the equivalent of LTIR is for the NFL.
Anyone know what his financial situation is? Assuming he has more than enough to retire and live comfortably the rest of his life, though it's also understandably tough to walk away when he could seemingly be a star in this league. Hopefully if he does decide to hand 'em up he can find another career in the NFL, maybe in broadcasting.
He just signed a massive deal in the summer worth 200M+ the guarantees are the only thing he'll get if he walks away which are still pretty high the last time I looked at it but the Dolphins owner will probably fight him/insurance for awarding the whole deal to Tua.
Correct me if I'm wrong anyone who knows the CBA/stuff better but I saw that stuff circulating Twitter/NFL reporters lol
