Thread: Tua Tagovailoa get good report on his hip

Don't think this means anything to the team but who knows.

Tua Tagovailoa is maintaining speed on the track toward the NFL.

The Alabama quarterback's three-month CT scan on his fractured hip was as positive as possible, revealing a healed hip, NFL Network Insider Ian Rapoport reported, per sources informed of the situation. The hip and its range of motion is good, but it'll likely be another month before Tagovailoa is cleared for football activities, Rapoport added.


Tagovailoa's gruesome injury ended his junior season early and cast his NFL future in doubt. The football world's confidence in his potential was shaken by the nature of the injury, but according to the latest developments, it sounds as if such doubt will only be temporary.

This can't be. I've been told he's Bo Jackson and will never walk again!

I hope we stay away from any QB in round one.

I frankly can't see spending a Top-10 pick on a guy with that type of injury history. Of course I say this and then he'll become a Patriot and stars the next 20 years.

He's going to go top 10. That injury sucked but word is jes expected to be 100%. The only other guy that looked on his level was Burrow and he's criticized for not playing much before this year. So, you either get a very talented guy that didn't play a lot before this year or a very talented guy that did and has some wear and tear.

For a potential QB1 with that kind of skillset?

I'd draft him top 10.

Glad he's going to make it. Great talent and seems like a splendid man.

His hips are like butter

I'm a fan

If I'm cincy and his hip checks out medically and I'm drafting QB Im taking him over Burrow at 1.....

Very risky. He was an injury risk before the hip with various ailments, knee, ankle, hamm, now hip? IMO he'll never make it through the rigors of a full season.

Not sure who told you that, but it sure wasn't me.

I don't know that I'd go that far.

Before this hip injury he didn't miss a single game. That's not very risky.

He isn't a risk... at all? Given the extensive various ailments?

Dude, have you followed football long?

EVERYONE has extensive ailments, bumps, bruises, twisted ankles, hyperextended elbows, etc.

Do they miss games? Do they play up to the level they should?

No games missed? That's not injury prone.
