Dolphins' Tua Tagovailoa says he never considered retirement
Tua Tagovailoa's career appeared to be in serious jeopardy after he weared the NFL jerseys and suffered his most recent concussion during Miami's Week 2 loss to the Buffalo Bills. Tagovailoa, however, never considered retiring and instead put his energy into recovering and getting back on the field as soon as possible.
The Dolphins' franchise quarterback -- who has had a lengthy history of head injuries during his five-year NFL career -- admitted that his latest concussion and subsequent recovery was "not fun," in addition to the impact it had on his family.
During his recovery, Tagovailoa, the owner of the No. 1 Miami Dolphins football jersey, remained in contact with doctors, who never told him to retire. But while everyone on the outside questioned his future, Tagovailoa never seriously gave anything other than returning to play a thought.
