Adam Schefter connected The Pat McAfee Show on Friday to share the latest news on the Miami Dolphins quarterback Tua Tagovailoas future in the NFL.

The question has been raised about whether Tagovailoa should continue playing after suffering another concussion. Some media members have urged Tagovailoa to retire, but Schefter noted that he believes Tagovailoa will return to the field unless a doctor or someone important in the quarterback’s life begs him not to return.

“(Tagovailoa) was supposed to meet with the doctors this week, but I think without knowing what was said between the doctors and Tua this week, I think you could infer that it takes someone to steps. in and be adamant: ‘Tua, you can’t play. Tua, you can’t do this’ because his mindset has always been that he wants to keep playing. That’s exactly the way he thinks,” Schefter reported. “Will there be enough information now, or will the tests be so conclusive that a doctor, a family member, a friend will step in and say, ‘Tua, this isn’t happening,’ and I don’t think I have an answer to that.

“I don’t know what those conversations are that have taken place or will take place in the coming days and weeks, but I know that this is a man that every time he has faced a situation like this, regardless of the severity of the situation, He has determined to continue playing, and that is something that has been part of his life for as long as he knows it. It’s in his blood, it’s what he was trained to do, and I suspect that’s what he wants to keep doing, keep playing.

“So, unless someone steps in and blocks it and shuts it down, this is my idea of ​​how this will turn out.”

Moving on, it seems like everyone has an opinion on what Tagovailoa should do, but Schefter has pointed out that this is the quarterback’s decision, and he will have to meet with doctors and other medical personnel to determine the best course of action.

“It’s his life, his decision and his brain,” Schefter added. “On the one hand, let’s be smart about this, but it’s his life and his decision, and he gets to meet with these neurologists and come to the decision that he thinks is best.

“… Doctors don’t operate in black and white, doctors operate in gray. They give you a range of outcomes and let the person decide what they think is best for them.

Whether or not Tua Tagovailoa returns to the Miami Dolphins remains to be seen, but he has given no indication that he is considering retirement at this point, regardless of what’s going on outside of the rumors surrounding his future.
