NFL Draft: Tua Tagovailoa gets good medical news and release to train

Tua Tagovailoa received his four-month medical testing and review on Monday. The news could not have better for the too frequently injured, former Alabama football quarterback.

Tua, who had already been throwing a little, can now take dropbacks before whipping his golden arm forward. He can also begin to do light running. The positive news was expected. After being carefully tested at the NFL Combine, the four-month testing was a scheduling protocol in his road to full recovery.

Ian Rapoport reported the news from Dr. Lyle Cain, Tua’s primary physician who knows Tua well as an Alabama football orthopedist.
