Should Tua retire? Another concussion??

[Spade]

Yes. The rest of his life is in danger

Facts. He needs to call it a career.

 

[DraymondT]

I thought it was gon be a big hit after seein the talk.... To have that reaction for a hit we see every game not a bad hit at all is bad news. His head is in constant danger on the field if average hits like that are causin fencin responses. He should retire no question. To have the season he did last season and get the bag was big but he or his family should call it.

Yes. The rest of his life is in danger

Talking the dolphins to the playoffs is worth it

He should becuz he still hasn't learned. The plays he gets hurt on are the plays where he doesn't fet rid of the ball. He just can't help himself.

Just saw the play he got hurt on. The guy olays like a dumb azz

He should retire cuz of his arm tho, not his head. As fukked up as his head is, his arm is worse

 

[Playaz Eyez]

Does he just straight up not have control of his limbs at certain times? I remember seeing him in previous years being tackled and not bracing himself for the impact at all. He just gives up his body and gets completely crushed landing.

 

[chiefdogg]

Yes

 

[Red Money]

He lost weight that he gained last year so he could take hits. The Weight gain and Judo training helped.

Fast forward 2024 he cuts weight and probably doesn't do Judo anymore. Guess he got cocky...

Teams clear dude with multiple concussions every week. Unless he walking away or a scan show significant damage (unlikely) he'll play again if he wants. There isn't a huge precedent for star players walking away or not getting cleared due to concussions. Kuechly the only one I can think of in recent memory. This is the NFL.

I remember Lions never clearing Jahvid Best after multiple concussions and forced him to retire

The game is dirty. Money over everything. What doctor wants to be a martyr and lose money to feed their family. What would you do? One less Bentley for your family, or advise an athlete to retire due to brain bleeds shown on an MRI. That advisement would lead to you going back to a regular private practice.

Money over everything. Its the American way. Money is many peoples God.

Im sure a team Dr can. He should see some real Drs.

This is a key comment here. Team Dr's will do what the owners want really. External Dr's will tell him to call it a day as it will only get worse.

 

[number21]

He should. He's too small and fragile for the sport and his continued concussions will cause hysteria to the point where the NFL will place their QBs in bubble wrap.

But he won't because he's looking for that second contract.

Now, he got that second contract. I think he will consider it but give it a go to show he's no p*ssy but who knows.

 

[wire28]

He had a good run. Time to go home and be a family man.

 

[Card Holder]

i don't care bout the doctors. you should have enough awareness at this point to realize he shouldn't play anymore for his own safety. i do think Tua too stupid for his own good. his family needs to sit his ass down.
