with many debating <\/a>whether or not he should be shut down for the season or beyond. <\/p>\nOn Thursday, Hicks tweeted: \u201cI know some of you are mad \u2014 but UNO ain’t going anywhere for a very long time. Get over it,\u201d with crying-laughing emojis.<\/p>\n
Tagovailoa, who was day-to-day after entering the protocol, will sit out Sunday’s crucial matchup with the Patriots at Gillette Stadium, head coach Mike McDaniel said Wednesday. Teddy Bridgewater will get the start. <\/p>\n
\u201cAnd BTW \u2014 NO ONE cares about your ‘fandom’. Being miserable is your own prerogative. Especially when the season isn’t over and the playoffs are ready and waiting,\u201d Hicks added later. \u201cSo, Jump ship & find another team. No one cares lol. Especially the Miami Dolphins and their players.\u201d<\/p>\n\n
Hicks’ tweet came after Tagovailoa’s brother, Maryland quarterback Taulia Tagovailoa, weighed in on the concussion controversy, and said he believes Tua will continue to play. <\/p>\n
\u201cEveryone has their opinion,\u201d Taulia told The Associated Press on Thursday ahead of Friday’s Duke’s Swimwear Bowl in Charlotte. \u201cMy brother, I know he works hard. I know he has a family now. I want my brother to be safe, but at the same time I know that he has a love and a passion for football. I feel like he is going to make the right decision. The biggest thing is staying safe, so that is something he has to pray on. I know when it comes down to it, he will make the right decision. <\/p>\n
\u201cI just feel like he’s not going to stop playing football. I feel like every opportunity he has, he is going to try to play. I don’t know, it’s just ‘go until the wheels fall off.’\u201d<\/p>\n
