What happened with Tua Tagovailoa on Sunday is why so many people have been turned off from sports gambling.
Tua returned for his second game against the Buffalo Bills, and many gamblers had money on not only the game’s outcome but also with certain props.
Depending on where you place bets, many sites had Tua Tagovailoa with 243.5 yards on the day.
With just five seconds to play in the game, Tua had 254 yards. He had easily cleared the prop.
Down by just three points, the Dolphins were way too far down the field to throw a hail mary, so it had to be a bunch of handoffs to teammates to hopefully matriculate their way up the field.
Tua got the ball out, but once it was thrown to wide receiver Jaylen Waddle, he decided to screw thousands of people at once when he suddenly ran backward behind the line of scrimmage.
Jaylen Waddle lost 24 yards, and Tua Tagovailoa ended up with 231 yards when he was tackled.
He went 25-of-28 for 231 yards and two touchdowns, leading the offense to points on five of their possessions, but nobody cared about that after that final play.
Many fans thought the entire possession was rigged, as Las Vegas likely called in a favor.
