Tua Tagovailoa Suffers Career Threatening Hip Injury

[Jonboy]

Talking about it in the qb thread but this warrants it’s own imo. It also happened when Bama was up 35-7.

Hate it for Tua as he seems like a genuinely good kid.

 

This injury has massive ramifications for the 2020 Draft.

[Number9]

I think he came back 2 soon from the calf injury.  People four to six month recovery.  Tua, pins in calf, out one week.  Just because you can, doesn't mean you should.

I wonder if a couple of other qb's turn pro now (Eason and Fromm) with the Tua injury news.  I guess who goes as the #2 qb now, is it definitely Herbert or someone else.  I think MIA may have been a lock to take Tua at #4.  But do they go at another position at that pick or do they still go with a qb as planned.

Hopefully he had a nice insurance policy. 

[Titans279]

There’s pretty much no way we should draft a first round QB given it’s basically just Burrow at this point. 2+ rounds, sure.

@WG53 has been pointing out how injury prone Tua is for several months.

[Supdawg]

Yeah... This definitely puts us at a zero percent chance of Burrow now.

Context for the Jackson comparison. They didn’t operate on him and the cartilage in his hip joint died

Difference was they didn’t operate on Bo so he got Avascular Necrosis which ended career. The fracture didn’t end his career. Torn labrum is fixable, so are vessels . We know a lot more now than back then

The Mariota flows strong within him.  I'ma play it safe and pre-order that sworded #13 jersey.

First Bama loses to LSU last week, then they lose to injury this week.

 

Roll Tiiiiiiide... right off a cliff.
