The NFL is officially back with fans, tailgates and fireworks on and off the field. With a new series of international matchups, an increase in female viewership and can’t-miss games, the new level of popularity for the league promises another blockbuster season. NBC’s Shaquille Brewster reports in this week’s Sunday Focus.
The Buffalo Bills won their Thursday night matchup with the Miami Dolphins 31-10, a game in which Dolphins quarterback Tua Tagovailoa left with a concussion in the third quarter. Tagovailoa was trying to convert a fourth down with Miami trailing by 21 points when he collided head first with Bills safety Damar Hamlin. Tagovailoa’s teammates immediately called for trainers as he lay on the ground. He walked off under his own power and was ruled out.
Running back James Cook scored three touchdowns for the Bills — two on the ground and one in the air. Quarterback Josh Allen had a simple night, completing 13-of-19 passes for 139 yards. Cook ran for 78 yards on 11 carries. The attention will now turn to Tagovailoa, who has a history with concussions.
