- ESPN report players’ union dismiss doctor for ‘many mistakes’
- Miami QB played on despite showing concussion symptoms
An unaffiliated doctor involved in the decision to clear the Miami Dolphins quarterback Tua Tagovailoa after he was evaluated for a concussion during a recent game against Buffalo has been fired, according to an ESPN report on Saturday.
ESPN, who cited a National Football League source, said the neurotrauma consultant made “several mistakes” while evaluating Tagovailoa, who seemed to exhibit concussion symptoms after hitting his head on the ground during Sunday’s game.
