On a recent edition of First Take, Stephen A. Smith said that Tagovailoa looked concussed after the play:

Smith added that he doesn’t find fault with the NFLPA, who’s investigating the concussion protocols of the Dolphins or with the quarterback:

Tua Tagovailoa and the strong start to his 2022-23 season

So far, the fifth-overall pick of the 2020 NFL Draft is having a career season early on in year three. Tagovailoa is second in the NFL in passing yards (925), third in passing touchdowns (8), and has led two Dolphins comeback wins this season under center.

He was the AFC Offensive Player of the Week in Week Two, throwing for 469 yards and six touchdowns versus the Baltimore Ravens. After starting 12 games all of last season, the 24-year-old hasn’t missed a start in 2022.

Let’s see if Tagovailoa is alright given his injury history and whether he can lead Miami to the playoffs this season. The Dolphins will travel to Paul Brown Stadium in Week Four to take on the Super Bowl runners-up, the Cincinnati Bengals.
