During a recent organised team activity session, Dolphins quarterback Tua Tagovailoa, was seen wearing a helmet cam while on the field.
The cam captures his every movement on the field. The helmet cam consists of a built-in camera and microphone, providing an up-close and personal view of the action.

However, the Dolphins coach Mark McDaniel referred to that cam as an additional tool that can help the team with film study.
“It’s not anything earth-shattering, it’s a camera, but it does have audio, and I think some of the strong attributes of that technology are that you get to hear play calls, you can library those play calls for players to hear when they’re studying,
McDaniel sees this as an easier way to watch practice tapes and see how a play unfolded from the same view that Tagovailoa saw it from.
“It’s a tool to help really drive home certain coaching points and just see what they’re seeing, to be on the same page as the player,”
Today, it’s easier than ever for players to incorporate cameras into their equipment for their own benefit.
Whether it’s for analyzing their performance, sharing highlights, or gaining a competitive edge, cameras have become an indispensable tool in the world of sports.
