*** NFL 2022 ***

@BigRedBuster that might be a little extreme (possibly intentionally so).  Though I have not standing to know for sure.  Not sure that person does either.

But I definitely think he should be out for several weeks at least.  I find it very hard to believe that the hit last week caused the issues we saw.  In my completely uneducated opinion, that is a textbook case of Second Impact Syndrome.  The first one wasn't seen as very bad so he played but then it didn't take much of a second hit to produce some ugly results.

So he needs plenty of time to recover before being subjected to any other potential impacts.

 
Dolphins’ Tua Tagovailoa out for at least Jets game while in concussion protocol, but coach says MRI was clean (msn.com)

Said wide receiver Tyreek Hill: “Tua’s fine. I’ve had a chance to talk to him on our off days. There’s really nothing to talk about further. Tua is fine. He’s in good hands.”

I trust the teammates and people very close in Tua's circle.  From a distance, I would hope he gets a few weeks to heal up. 

Should Tua decide to play again in a few weeks, that is fine by me.  If he shuts it down longer, I'm ok with that too.  Whatever he decides, I am ok with.  But I am not listening to the CTE subject matter expert calling for immediate retirement from the outside looking in.
