Tua Tagovailoa says he has no regrets about his tackle attempt after throwing an interception against LA Rams

CNN  

CNN — Miami Dolphins quarterback Tua Tagovailoa said that he does not regret his tackle attempt in his team’s 23-15 victory over the Los Angeles Rams on Monday, despite his history of head injuries. During the second quarter of the Monday Night Football matchup, Tagovailoa threw a pass intended for wide receiver Jaylen Waddle that was intercepted by Rams linebacker Christian Rozeboom. Rozeboom returned the ball 30 yards to the Dolphins’ 14-yard line, where he was met by a diving Tagovailoa, who launched himself headfirst at the linebacker’s legs in order to make the tackle. That’s it.” “Tua met with a litany – a laundry list, a long list – of medical experts and zero of them recommended that he shouldn’t play football,” said Miami head coach Mike McDaniel.
