Tua Tagovailoa Almost Bent In Half, Manages To Escape Serious Injury
After witnessing Tua Tagovailoa lose the game against the Houston Texans, Miami Dolphins supporters all passed out.
The Miami Dolphins quarterback was awkwardly tackled late in the first half, causing his body to twist into a pretzel.
Tua Tagovailoa Almost Bent In Half, Manages To Escape Serious Injury
The Dolphins lead the Texans 30-0 at the half, and if Mike McDaniel is being smart, Teddy Bridgewater will start every play from scrimmage from this point on going forward given what transpired on the last play of the second quarter.
Tua Tagovailoa was sacked by a Houston defender with only a few seconds left on the clock, folding him in half after his foot got stuck in the turf below him.

Everyone in Hard Rock Stadium could be heard gasping.
As the third quarter comes to a close, the Miami Dolphins are dominating the Houston Texans, but the injuries that are occurring are the true story.

Tua Tagovailoa was sacked in a terrifying way, but for the time being, he is not hurt. Due to Miami’s loss of Terron Armstead, he has experienced continual pressure from the left side of the line.
As he departed the field for halftime with the Dolphins up 30-0, Tagovailoa had a little limp.

The Dolphins have outgained the underdog Texans 287 yards to 32, dominating them. They were so close to scoring twice on defence.
In addition, Andrew Van Ginkel returned an interception 23 yards to the Houston 3 to set up a Jeff Wilson touchdown run. Xavien Howard scooped up a Jordan Akins fumble and returned it 16 yards for a touchdown.
With the Texans, the Dolphins have got their way.

Since Dan Marino had 278 passing yards in a 1991 game for the Dolphins, Tagovailoa has completed 20 of 34 passes for 278 yards and a touchdown. Tyreek Hill has five receptions for 69 yards, while Jaylen Waddle has four for 80.
Tua Tagovailoa has been benched by the Dolphins. Since Miami is winning the game 30-6, it really isn’t surprising that he entered the contest.
Unless Thompson sustains an injury, Tua completes the game 22/36 for 299 yards and a touchdown.
