NFL must take action to protect players from themselves

The Los Angeles Rams are set to face the Dolphins in Week 10, yet Miami could be without one of their best players for that matchup. On Thursday, Pro Bowl quarterback Tua Tagovailoa suffered the third diagnosed concussion of his five-year NFL career. The result was another jolting reminder that the players underneath the pads you see on TV are in fact human beings. Odd I know.

Following the game, several former players chimed in to comment on the QB’s unfortunate situation. Tony Gonzalez, Dez Bryant, Shannon Sharpe, Richard Sherman and Andrew Whitworth were among the crowd calling on Tua to consider retiring.
