From what everyone saw it makes perfect sense, from what they said it doesn't exactly line up, usually nobody is eliminated especially this early they give them time to see how they progress.
Tua didn't go into concussion protocol, didn't have to clear it, and played on a short week, it's not the same thing.
Ryan Bates literally played this week.
If he goes through the protocol and is cleared I'd bet he's playing, McDermott played Josh the week after the Patriots game he got taken out of when he cleared protocol, I'd imagine he'd do the same here.
