The recent situation involving Miami Dolphins quarterback Tua Tagovailoa and his head injury has had many in the NFL space speaking their mind about the NFL’s concussion protocols.

Los Angeles Rams head coach Sean McVay just had to put one of his players, guard David Edwards, through concussion protocol despite being a starter and his team still yet to play on Monday against the San Francisco 49ers.

Tagovailoa’s situation has been more complicated. While the Dolphins have already ruled him out against the New York Jets in Week 5, the NFL has to get involved to see if the team properly followed concussion protocol during their Week 3 win over the Buffalo Bills.

But in Week 4 on Thursday night against the Cincinnati Bengals, Tagovailoa was tackled hard and hit his head on the turf again, this time needing a stretcher to be carried out of the stadium and to the hospital. He’s been in concussion protocol since, and the NFLPA exercised its right to fire the independent neurologist that cleared Tagovailoa to return for that Week 3 contest.
