With three touchdown passes and 262 passing yards, Tagovailoa had just guided the Dolphins to a 42-21 victory over the Carolina Panthers. He got going on the touchdown pass to Tyreek Hill but quickly changed the subject.

After answering one question from the media following Miami’s 42-21 victory, the Dolphins’ quarterback brought up the terrible situation in Israel.

“I kind of want to also bring to the attention, like, I didn’t really realize how bad things were in Israel,” Tagovailoa said. “I just wanted to bring to attention for those who don’t necessarily understand things that are going on that it really is bad. If you don’t understand, if you go on Google, you look, you search and you read about what is going on in this world, this world needs prayer.

“I don’t know what we’ve come to, but just my thoughts, my prayers are out there with those people in Israel. I know there’s the Ukraine and Russia war still going on as well, and I just wanted to bring notice that, although we have the freedom to do this here, play football and be able to have the freedom to do these things, that to come back into reality and think that’s where we all are in this world. I just wanted to bring that to the attention. Hopefully we can all come together and pray for the kids, the children, the wives, the women, the men that are putting themselves out there every day for those unfortunate events that are happening right now.”

Last week, the Palestinian terrorist organization Hamas, which governs the Gaza Strip, launched an unexpected attack on Israel, reigniting the decades-long, deadly confrontation between Israelis and Palestinians. Since then, Israel has proclaimed war on the organization and begun reprisal.

At least 29 Americans were among the more than 1,300 victims of the Hamas attack as of Sunday night, according to The New York Times. The fighting has resulted in at least 2,670 Palestinian deaths in Gaza and close to 10,000 injuries. After Israel cut off supply of food, water, and other essentials, there are also worries about an escalating humanitarian crisis in the area.
