The most effective means of protecting players remains enforcing strict concussion protocols, which many are concerned didn't happen with Tua Tagovailoa.
Questions surround if Dolphins quarterback Tua Tagovailoa should have even playing during the Thursday Night Football game in the first place.
That's not happening, and the most effective means of protecting players remains enforcing strict concussion protocols, which players, fans and others are concerned didn't happen with Tagovailoa. It's unknown whether there's any correlation between the two incidents. Concussions are common in the NFL, especially when a player is thrown to the ground by a man Tupou's size and his head hits the turf.
"Tua showed five distinct signs of concussion," Nowinski told The Associated Press. "Anybody who has any training on concussions or cares about Tua as a human is not putting him on field four days after what he showed on Sunday, so this makes it so much worse because we know that this could be career-ending or season-ending. It should be season-ending, in my opinion. And it just shows just a lack of care for him as a human being.
The league has experimented with other means to mitigate head injuries. This year, offensive linemen, defensive linemen, tight ends and linebackers were required for the first time to wear Guardian Caps - a soft-shell, padded covering on top of their helmets - during practices from the start of training camp until the second preseason game.
