Tua ruled out vs Buffalo, Skylar Thompson expected to start


Process

Recommended Posts

No game is a given. It's now a one game season EVERY week. You feel bad for Tua, but this basically puts us into the Divisional Round. I hope for Tua's sake that he rides off of his likeability and latches on with College Game Day or something. If he keeps playing football things will only get worse.

Hypothetically could McDaniel lie about tua being out?

 

If there is a coach that would do this not caring about consequences it's him 

 

That would be a monster risk.  If Tua showed up and were concussed again, the guy would never coach again.

I actually agree with Colin here.

Yeah it isn't just a one sided protect the player situation, Tua definitely has a side to this of wanting to be out there for what is a very limited opportunity to try and make his dream a reality. Just a tough situation all around.

No. Tua would need a non-contact practice with football activities and a full-contact practice. Tomorrow is the final full-contact practice before gameday. He would have had to practice today and tomorrow to clear protocol.

I think there would be huge league repercussions if that somehow ever happened.

 

McDaniel literally said today that doctors haven't cleared him to resume football activities.

There are plenty of sneaky snakes among the NFL head coaching ranks (what up Bill B). I’m sure if someone thought it could be done, long ago they would’ve tried the “yeah, so and so is ruled out…..PSYCH!” thing already.
