Tennessee Titans quarterback Marcus Mariota and Alabama Crimson Tide quarterback Tua Tagvailoa both went to the same high school, so when the star college signal-caller went down with a serious injury over the weekend, it hit close to home for Mariota.
Tagovailoa suffered a dislocated hip and posterior wall fracture in a 38-7 Alabama win on Saturday, ending his 2019 season. He underwent successful surgery to mend his injury and the good news is there is optimism that he can make a full recovery from such a serious injury.
The bad news is this leaves Tagovailoa’s future in doubt.
