What Tua’s doctors need to do next after suffering concussion, neurosurgeon speaks out | Quickcast
SUMMARY: In today’s CBS News Miami quickcast, chief meteorologist Ivan Cabrera forecasts high heat and potential rain, urging caution for outdoor plans. The Miami Dolphins prioritize quarterback Tua Tagovailoa’s health after he suffered a concussion during a game. A teenager is in critical condition following a scooter accident where a Good Samaritan lifted the SUV that pinned her. In labor news, over 33,000 Boeing union workers have gone on strike after rejecting a contract; the company risks losing up to $1 billion weekly. Additionally, there’s a search for a missing pregnant woman, and Dwyane Wade will be honored with a statue at the FTX Arena.
In today’s Quickcast:
Tua Tagovailoa is now dealing with the third diagnosed concussion of his NFL career, all of them coming in the last 24 months.
And there are now questions about his future — both short-term and long-term.
The Miami Dolphins quarterback was hurt in his team’s 31-10 loss to the Buffalo Bills on Thursday night, sustaining the injury on a play where he collided into Bills defensive back Damar Hamlin. Tagovailoa, who was rushing successfully for a first down, initiated the contact by lowering his shoulder into Hamlin instead of sliding as many quarterbacks do on a scramble.
Players from both teams immediately began gesturing that Tagovailoa needed medical attention as he lay on the turf and exhibited some signs typically associated with a traumatic brain injury. He remained down on the field for a couple of minutes, got to his feet and walked to the sideline after the play in the third quarter.
He made his way to the tunnel not long afterward, looking into the stands before smiling and departing toward the locker room. The Dolphins needed only a few minutes to announce that he would not return to the game.
Catch the Quickcast with Najahe Sherman weekdays at 4PM ET streaming on the CBS Miami app and CBSMiami.com

Orlando restaurant owner invites artists to parking lot amid federal fight against street art

SUMMARY: In Minneapolis, friends and family gathered to honor 10-year-old Harper Moyski, killed in a mass shooting at Annunciation Catholic School.

Her mother, Jackie Flavin, described Harper as “extra in the very best way,” loving dogs and aspiring to be a veterinarian.

A look at recent flooding across South Florida
SUMMARY: South Florida is still recovering from a week of severe flooding that made roads nearly impassable, stalled cars, and forced people to wade through water. In Hollywood, upgraded flood pumps and drainage systems helped subside water levels quickly, preventing damage to homes. However, in North Miami, residents along 141st Street report ongoing issues with backed-up drains and street flooding, which disrupt daily life, including doctor visits. The city claims the flooding is due to long tides rather than clogged drains and asserts the area has been checked. Concerns remain about the area’s vulnerability without further drainage maintenance.
Parts of South Florida are still drying out from the deluge of rain storms last week.
