Hamlin Involved in Another Primetime Injury, Leaving Fans Shocked

Miami Dolphins quarterback Tua Tagovailoa left Thursday night’s game against the Buffalo Bills with a concussion, raising concerns about his long-term health. The injury occurred late in the second quarter after a tackle by Bills defensive back Damar Hamlin.

While Hamlin’s tackle appeared to be clean, Tagovailoa’s head hit the ground, leaving him visibly shaken. Medical staff quickly attended to him on the field before he walked off under his own power. Shortly after, he was ruled out with a concussion.

The incident is particularly concerning due to Tagovailoa’s history with concussions. This latest injury marks another setback for the young quarterback.

Adding another layer to the situation is Hamlin’s involvement. Hamlin himself suffered a cardiac arrest during a game on January 2, 2023, making a remarkable recovery to return to football this season.



The incident sparked debate on social media, with some drawing parallels between the two injuries and others criticizing the focus on Hamlin. However, many, including members of the media, were quick to point out that Hamlin’s tackle was legal and unavoidable.

For now, the focus remains on Tagovailoa’s well-being as he enters concussion protocol.
