Tua Tagovailoa's latest concussion leads to so many prayers from NFL players, including Patrick Mahomes
We, too, are sending best thoughts to Tua Tagovailoa.
The Miami Dolphins quarterback has a history of head injuries, and although he learned jiu-jitsu so he could take safer sacks, the latest concussion came when he ran in Thursday night’s loss to the Buffalo Bills and was hit by Damar Hamlin.
After that happened and Tagovailoa left the field, ruled out quickly with a concussion, current and former NFL players sent prayers on X (formerly Twitter) to the quarterback in the hopes that he’ll be OK after this latest injury.
Here’s a roundup of those messages, including from Patrick Mahomes:

Really just praying for Tua’s long term health. Another concussion puts him at 3 officially and countless other scares. Think of the person not just the player.

Prayers up for Tua! I pray he recovers quickly.
It’s time to shut it down. He has been one hell of a player and even better person.
His impact and purpose in this world is so much bigger than football.

Thinking about Tua right now. Everyone is going to have an opinion on what he should do with his career and that’s a tough position to be in. I wasn’t a star QB but I’ve been in that position several times; concussed, frozen and stumbling on the field while my family watched.…
