Tua Tagovailoa Suffers Concussion in Loss

Miami Dolphins quarterback Tua Tagovailoa has been diagnosed with his third concussion in two years following a hit during a game against the Buffalo Bills. Coach Mike McDaniel emphasized the need to prioritize Tagovailoa's health over discussions about his career, urging fans and media to refrain from speculation regarding retirement. In Tagovailoa's absence, Skylar Thompson will take over as starting quarterback, with the team also seeking additional quarterback depth through free agency. McDaniel noted that timelines for recovery can induce anxiety, and the team's focus is solely on Tagovailoa's well-being. As he enters the NFL's concussion protocol, the Dolphins are prepared for the possibility of Tagovailoa being sidelined for an extended period. The Dolphins are set to face the Seattle Seahawks in Week 3, with Thompson leading the team.
