Tua busted his hip bc he was favoring his ankle

Are you doctor Nick from the simpsons?

There is no possible way to know this. Plenty of players play with bum ankles, and I'm not reading about displaced hips every week.

Oh shut the frick up, OP

You mean the guy that once stepped over one of his convulsing players to get to his office might not have his players’ best interests at heart???

He would have never sustained this injury with an uninjured ankle. Watch each time he’s tackled. He takes weight off the foot and flexes his hip

pretty sure that he sustained this injury because his femur was perpendicular to the ground when his knee hit and he was flexed forward at about a 90 degree angle while he had two defensive linemen on his back directly over his leg (thus, 100% of their weight as well as about 45% of his was all on that one joint crashing down with force.

I agree 100%. People downvoting so feverishly have never played sports at an elite level.

I suppose the old adage is true, "What do you call a person who finishes last in his/her class in medical school? Doctor."

Tua's ankle wasn't even involved in the play. He crashed down hard onto his knee with two players on top of him, which drove his leg into his hip.

He got hurt cause he’s slow and was chased down from behind.

Should have just thrown the ball away and listened to coach and stayed out the game

I believe if hes healthy he outruns those 2 guys and doesnt even get touched

I doubt he gets caught like that fully healthy.

Saban risked this trying to get style points before the half.

Was never worth it.
