A few days after he suffered a separate head injury and was caught stumbling around after he got hit.

He returned to this game despite having an obvious concussion it seems.

This one happened just a few minutes ago..

Look how his fingers made those weird gestures due to the head injury, scary.

Dolphins might have fvkced up big time, possibly 2 concussions in 5 days?

Playing him was criminal

Those could be career altering/ending injuries. Once you have that many concussions in such a short span of time, seemingly innocuous hits could result in constant concussions, and that's no bueno.

I played football all through middle school and high school and then some afterwards and after watching Tua take a fall these last two games, I'm sorry, but this guy doesn't know how to fall. He's going to end up with severe CTE at this point. That's twice his head has bounced off the ground like a basketball. Makes you appreciate guys like Tom Brady who has lasted this long with only one major injury to his knee that I can remember.

I remember getting the chills when I first heard this Troy Aikman concussion story

You ain't kidding. I got one real concussion playing in high school. It was in the middle of the 3rd quarter and my next memory was standing on the sidelines looking at the scoreboard with 2 mins left in the game. I was told I played the whole time.

Then he was cleared to get on a plane to go back to Miami. I'm sure that doesn't help things even if he was cleared.
