Miami Dolphins QB Tua Tagovailoa suffers another scary-looking injury

Update: Miami Dolphins ruled Tua Tagovailoa out with a concussion.

Miami Dolphins quarterback Tua Tagovailoa was not having a good go at it against the division-rival Buffalo Bills to open Week 2 Thursday night .

Tua was absolutely dreadful in the first half, throwing two interceptions. It led to the Dolphins finding themselves down two touchdowns at the half.

Despite this, there was some confidence that Tua and the Dolphins could come back. After all, they did just that against the Jacksonville Jaguars in Week 1.

About that? Tagovailoa pretty much put the game on ice with another interception in the third quarter. This time, it came in the form of a pick-six into the hands of Bills defensive back Ja’Marcus Ingram.

But this is not the entire story here. Not even close.

On the drive following that interception, Tagovailoa suffered what was a scary-looking injury. It came as his head made contact with the chest of Bills safety Damar Hamlin. It was not a great scene in South Beach.

As you can see, Tagovailoa was up in a fencing position . That’s the first sign of a concussion. Obviously, Dolphins players were absolutely concerned over the status of their star quarterback.
