Miami Dolphins’ quarterbacks coach Darrell Bevell didn’t let a detached retina stop him from mentoring Tua Tagovailoa this offseason

In a fantastic article from Yahoo Sports’ Senior NFL reporter Jori Epstein, we learned that Miami Dolphins quarterbacks coach Darrell Bevell underwent surgery for a detached retina in his right eye this offseason.

According to Epstein, Bevell was forced to lay face down 90% of the time for seven straight days in order to properly heal from the early August procedure. Despite the difficulties that came along with the surgery, Miami’s quarterback coach continued to watch film and coach remotely — using Zoom to communicate with his players in meetings.
