People Don't Like It When Tua Tagovailoa Runs
Tua Tagovailoa returned to the Miami Dolphins starting lineup in Week 7 after missing two weeks because of concussions. He played pretty well, but it is clear many people cannot enjoy watching him play right now. Pretty much any time he gets hit viewers are going to hold their breath as they wait to see if the worst happened. And when he takes off running? Forget about it.
Tua just did this and I almost lost it.

If he's going to run, he's going to have to learn to slide. Not just for his own safety, but for everyone watching. When he took off in the third quarter on third and eight and lowered his shoulder, no one enjoyed it.

Again, credit to @miketirico & Collinsworth for being honest and direct about Tua’s concussion. Cris saying Tua told him he didn’t know if his parents were comfortable with him playing! #SNF

It’s sad, it looks like #TUA will never learn. He only has one gear, sadly, he doesn’t posses the body to play that way. #FinsUp pic.twitter.com/XftnjrFLD8

Tua must really think he's Derrick Henry in the open field. Gotta slide, man. No need to take those hits.

Tua turns me into a neurotic grandmother every time he does that shit.

Hopefully, Tua stays healthy long enough for people to stop feeling this way.
