Tua Tagovailoa donates $10,000 to TuAnon founder’s family
Good guy Tua Tagovailoa is back. After the founder of TuAnon, one of Tagovailoa’s fan clubs, passed away in a car accident, Tagovailoa donated $10,000 to his GoFundMe page, according to the New York Post.
The GoFundMe is all the way up to $87,200 and counting. With the news regarding the donation, Tua was asked about the gesture.

“He’s a diehard fan about me, but out of my respect to him, I mean, he basically not just covered me but the entire Dolphins,” Tagovailoa said. “For me to have done that, Tyreek [Hill] was able to do the same. Other guys have been able to do the same as well, to donate. But I just want his wife and his kids to know that we’re praying for them and that we’re thinking of them.”
Tagovailoa would also promote the GoFundMe for Carmona even more by tweeting out a message to his followers, followed by a link to the site.
“If you can help at all, either through their GoFundMe or with a prayer, it would mean a lot,” the quarterback tweeted, adding a praying hands emoji.
Earlier this week, the Dolphins lost one of our biggest fans. Eric Carmona tragically lost his life in a car accident on his way to work. He leaves behind his wife and 4 kids. If you can help at all, either through their GoFundMe or with a prayer, it would mean a lot. https://t.co/3OOOdxEPsb

Carmona sadly passed away on Thursday early morning on his way to work. His family, friends and the rest of the Dolphins fandom will miss him.
Eric Carmona was only 30-years-old when he sadly passed away from the accident. Carmona, a Navy veteran, fueled his love for football through the Dolphins and Tua. Carmona served six years in the Navy and continued as a military aviation electrician. He was also a father of four children as well as a husband to his wife Vanessa.
If you’re a fan of the Dolphins, Tua, or any other team, here is the link to Carmona’s GoFundMe which is happily increasing by the day.
