Dolphins' Tua Tagovailoa Stretchered Off, Taken to Hospital with Head, Neck Injuries

Miami Dolphins quarterback Tua Tagovailoa was stretchered off the field during the second quarter of Thursday's game against the Cincinnati Bengals with head and neck injuries, the team announced.

Tagovailoa is conscious and was transported to the University of Cincinnati Medical Center.

According to Prime Video play-by-play announcer Al Michaels, the broadcast's medical expert informed the booth Tagovailoa's fingers moving into a "fencing" position after the hit was a "neurological response to head trauma."

The 2020 first-round pick is in the midst of a breakout season highlighted by a six-touchdown performance against the Baltimore Ravens in Week 2.
