On his “GM Shuffle” podcast, former Cleveland Browns GM and longtime NFL analyst Michael Lombardi said sources have told him that two teams — including one drafting in the Top 10 — have “flunked” Tagovailoa on their pre-draft physical. Lombardi said it’s not only Tagovailoa’s hip injury — which ended his 2019 season in mid-November — that has pro teams wary, but also a “multitude of injuries” the former Crimson Tide star suffered during his college career.
“It’s not just his hip,” Lombardi said. “It’s his ankle. It’s his wrist. He broke his wrist the first day of spring ball one year. … He’s brittle. He is brittle. You can’t deny it.”
Real concern, or just typical NFL draft games?

I never believe any of these. Teams pander to the media with misinformation to aid their draft.

And then when he's not even injured, he pretends like he is.
Not good.
Not good.

I don't either, but this is plausible.

Teams who want Tua available after first five picks leak stories and fools believe them.

Sean Payton does wonders QBs coming off injury! Let’s do this!

These kinds of "leaks" are usually at least half bullshite.
Tua does have a nasty injury history though. Somebody just wants a bargain.

I don't believe any of this pre-draft info from teams because it is almost always a deception for strategic purposes. However, although I think Tua is really good from a character standpoint, as a Charger fan, I'm hoping that the Dolphins take him before the Chargers pick. I think he is fragile and too big a risk for the early 1st round.

Good... Hopefully he falls to the Chargers with the 6th pick..
IMO, Tua and Burrow will be similar to Brady and Manning... One is poised, has pocket awareness, good arm talent,killer instinct and the other has Uber arm talent, gun slinger, supremely gifted.

No chance I’d draft this kid in the first 6 rounds.

Grandpa thinks Tuna is a pussy, too.

That’s not Joe Burrow

Tua is the last person you should call a pussy

A1abana fans are all pussies.
So is Tuna.

Sounds like someone is trying to get a bargain pickup. Drew Brees failed some of those too.
He will be fine in the NFL.

I’m surprised Lombardi isn’t too busy trying to blast Gus’s offense. He must be quarantining.
