Calls for prayer rang out from many within both the football and Christian communities for Tagovailoa, who has a history of suffering concussions due to the hard hits he takes on the field.
Worship leader and “Let Us Worship” founder Sean Feucht posted on X in support of Tagovailoa, imploring his followers to lift the quarterback up in prayer.
Praying for my friend @Tua right now.
He’s a true worshipper of Jesus.
May God bring peace, healing and wisdom over his mind and body right now.
Additionally, many former players in the NFL called for Tagovailoa to retire, saying that the money made playing in the league is not worth the price it will take from his health.
The NFL quarterback has never been shy about sharing his faith, in both victory and defeat.
“I think the best thing about being a believer of Jesus Christ, to me, is that the good Lord up above doesn’t care whether you win a game, whether you lose a game,” Tagovailoa shared after a loss to the Bills in 2023.
“…allowing me this platform, to me, is the thing in the world to be able to profess my faith on something that I firmly believe in, something that’s been foundationally instilled in me at a young age.”
As Tagovailoa begins his recovery from this most recent injury, the community is encouraged to keep him in their thoughts and prayers. Fans, teammates and supporters alike are urged to come together in a spirit of hope and healing for Tagovailoa, wishing him a swift and full recovery. His faith, strength and determination have inspired many, and now, in this challenging moment, he needs the support of those who stand behind him.
