In a physical game like football you're going to have your tough guys still even these days that want to tough it out or get out there and not look weak. Also Tua has been a bit of a bust considering his draft status and I'm sure he wants to get out there and continue to prove himself like he has so far to start this season. Problem is it should be the teams responsibility to save these guys from themselves. Once again you got a proven veteran that is more than capable of making a spot start. Short week and then Tua would have gotten the extra time going into the next game to get fully healed up. I wonder if his past injury issues put anything in his head to want to prove that he can be a tough guy and play through an injury?
Some players will try to play on a broken leg or with any injury we got one on our o-line. But coaches and doctors are put in place to protect these guys. And ultimately the team owner has the most responsibility because he hires the coaches and doctors, and they answer to him/her.
Some fault does belong to the player but everyone else can make the player sit if not cleared to play.
