Patriots players have strong reaction to Tua Tagovailoa's scary injury

Miami Dolphins quarterback Tua Tagovailoa suffered what was described as a back injury last week against the Buffalo Bills. He remained in the game, even though it looked like he might have suffered a concussion. He should have been taken out.

The Dolphins received lots of criticism for doing that and an investigation was launched.

Despite all of that, Tagovailoa was allowed to play for the Dolphins on short rest in Thursday night's road game against the Cincinnati Bengals.

It was a horrendous decision.

Tagovailoa suffered head and neck injuries on a hard hit in the first quarter that resulted in him being driven to the ground and his helmet appearing to bang against the turf.
