Nanker Posted November 16, 2019 Share Posted November 16, 2019 That could be a career-ending injury. Bo Jackson comes to mind. Hope not for his sake, but dislocating your hip out the back of the pelvic cup can't be anything but horrific. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Used to matter a lot more when you had to sign rookies to high end contracts right out of the gate. However in this situation, he may not even be an option. Hip injuries are rare but very serious.

4merper4mer Posted November 16, 2019 Share Posted November 16, 2019 Wow this is very sad. I hope he can come back, for whichever NFL team takes him. An article I just read did not sound optimistic at all and even mentioned hip replacement being realistic. Sorry no link but it was the Washington Post. It's sad to see a kid that has worked so hard have this kind of circumstance. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He can rehab and hope to make some money in the NFL. He comes back and gets that hip hurt again he may never make a penny from professional football.

I can see a team like GB, NO, Pit, or NE grabbing the kid, stashing and developing him with a 2-3 year timetable.

zow2 Posted November 17, 2019 Share Posted November 17, 2019 I thought last week it was kind of soon seeing him play after recent ankle surgery. You could tell it was fragile. It has nothing to do with his hip but I figured he wouldn’t play today. I’m sure Tua wanted to though. Feel bad for the guy. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
whatdrought Posted November 17, 2019 Share Posted November 17, 2019 Jeez. What a bummer. I have been coming around to the idea of student athletes getting paid and I think this is the final nail in the argument for me.

BillsFanCRNA Posted November 17, 2019 Share Posted November 17, 2019 According to Dr. Cain (team physician), he'll be non-weight bearing for 3 months, and best case scenario is begin training in 6 months. Clearly that puts his timetable after the upcoming draft. I have to wonder if a team would risk taking him before it's even clear whether or not he can even play again. (Cain said they expect full recovery, but who knows). Either way, it's a terrible way for the best QB in Bama history to have his career end. Tua is an outstanding young man, and role-model. I hope Bama does the right thing and honor him by retiring #13 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
atlbillsfan1975 Posted November 17, 2019 Share Posted November 17, 2019 If the Bills will draft a RB in the first round I’m sure some team will spend a first on Tua. Granted it might be the Dolphins or Raiders second pick in the first round. i hope Tua makes a full recovery. Young man is a great guy and deserves a healthy shot at a chance to be a pro QB. As for Bama, I enjoy watching Nick knowing the end is here. Bama will be great again, but this year is over. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But it is a long tough rehab and could impact his career even if he’s able to play (Dennis pitta is an example I saw). Hopefully it doesn’t but the hip may always be an issue. He’s also seemingly a bit fragile with a number of injuries over his short collegiate career. Edited November 17, 2019 by YoloinOhio Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I don't follow the Tide closely but everything I've seen tells me he's a really good kid and he's obviously a great talent. 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
