Tua got 1s reps; off-target throws and scrambling ability raise concussion concerns.

Got reps with the 1s in Monday's no-contact practice. Had some off-target throws, often a bit high; sailed one over Drake London's head and out of bounds. On back-to-back plays, Tagovailoa was pressured, escaped contain, and ran it. The source notes this scrambling ability makes them nervous about his concussion history, suggesting concern about his tendency to extend plays with his legs rather than staying in the pocket.
