Tua’s Injury Rattles Falcons Before Steelers | Atlanta Falcons News

Tua Tagovailoa’s sudden back injury just before the Falcons’ showdown with Pittsburgh has sparked suspicion—especially after former Steelers coach Mike Tomlin publicly roasted Tua’s tape last season, highlighting his struggles against the Steelers. Tua, who recently declared he had “nothing left to prove,” sat out Thursday’s practice, leaving backup Cooper Rush to take over. Atlanta now lists him as week-to-week with an oblique injury, separate from prior back issues. The Steelers, who were preparing for a right-handed QB, now face a left-handed wildcard—and history shows backups can pull off upsets.
