The “Thursday Night Football” on September 12, 2024, became a nightmare for Dolphins’ QB Tua Tagovailoa. The QB was taken out of the game in the third quarter after falling on the ground after a hit from Bills safety Damar Hamlin. This incident made his fans and team worried about him.
Some even called him out, asking for his retirement from the NFL. “That’s it… NFL, go ahead and do the right thing,” posted Cowboys former WR, Dez Bryant on his “X.” He mentioned the topic again in the Ross Tucker Podcast, “I would not play football again if I were Tua” mentioned it is 100% Tua’s but the QB should know life after the NFL is pretty fun. And even though the retirement decision is tough at the age of 26, he needs to think about his health and make the right decision.

What’s your reaction? Should Tua Tagovailoa retire after his latest concussion scare? React! Reactions
It sure is a tough decision for Tagovailoa, at one side, he has his career and a $212.4 million contract he signed with Miami. On the other hand, the most important thing is his health. But considering he has already faced the same issue back in 2022, everyone’s concern is justified.
However, Dez is not the only one who has expressed his concerns. Broncos former TE Shannon Sharpe, also dived into the discussion, mentioning, “Really hope Tua is ok, but he’s gotta seriously think about shutting it down.” He hates saying this because Tua has his whole career ahead of him, but his concussions are getting “worse and worse” which might be a problem in the future.
As long as Tua does not wish to retire, what everyone else thinks does not matter. And by the latest statements, it looks like his team wants to hold on to him.

What do Dolphins officials think about Tua Tagovailoa’s retirement?
Dolphins are worried about the QB’s health, but they do not want to let him go. And even Tua Tagovailoa does not want to quit the league. There are speculations that QB will be asked to rest for the remaining time in the 2024 season but will be back once he is fine.
Dolphins HC Mike McDaniel also mentioned it while discussing his injury after the game. He said, “It would be so wrong of me to sniff that subject. It’s more in line with actually caring about the human being. You’re talking about his career. His career is his…. Bringing up his future is not in the best interests.” And pleaded with everyone if they genuinely care, they should stop asking him to retire. Mentioning the QB will be back in the team and has no plans to quit.
