Dolphins quarterback Tua Tagovailoa believes his group’s disappointing season is a direct reflection on his failure to guard himself from a concussion that precipitated him to overlook 4 video games.
Tagovailoa instructed reporters he’s “very stunned” by the Dolphins’ 5-7 file and stated it doesn’t replicate your complete group however does replicate how necessary it’s that he do a greater job of avoiding huge hits that might trigger him to overlook time.
“I don’t suppose that exhibits the character of who we’re as a group, doesn’t present the work that we’ve put on this offseason collectively,” Tagovailoa stated. “But no one else will say it however me, and I really feel like this has quite a bit to do with myself, clearly placing myself in hurt’s manner within the second recreation, taking place, principally leaving my guys out to dry. That’s what I’d say. Anyone can have an opinion about it’s soccer, it’s this, it’s that, however I do take that to coronary heart as properly, so I don’t need to do this to my guys once more.”
Without Tagovailoa, the Dolphins’ offense was terrible, they usually went 1-3. There’s no assure that they’d have received all these video games with Tagovailoa, but when they’d gone 3-1 as a substitute of 1-3 in that four-game stretch, they’d be 7-5 and proper within the thick of the AFC playoff race.
There could also be nothing extra necessary to the Dolphins than Tagovailoa avoiding concussions. And he is aware of he must do all the things in his energy to guard himself.
