First thing is Tua's health as a person, football aside.



However, this is a football site, so we are going to have to talk about these things.

Assuming he doesn't return, what does it mean for the franchise in terms of his contract.  Can the NFL give some exemptions for medical retirement or are we tied to that cap hit for the next several years regardless?

I did read online yesterday that the Dolphins were smart enough to buy insurance on at least part of his contract.  But there is a lot of gray area when it comes to whether or not Tua is cleared by doctors to play, or if he just retires if he is cleared to play.

None of this really touches Dave's question in regards to the salary cap. I think that is because the cap is such a convoluted thing that a layman can't answer it until the experts explain it to us and I don't think too many people want to go on record with the discussion.
