There are ACL's and MCL's all over the NFL. Also lesser injuries are multiplying.



Maybe the lack of supervised training and lack of OTA's are the reason.



Surely somebody from Stanford can come up with an algorithm.

Its a problem all over sports not just football, athletes get injured way more now than they used to. I don't know what to attribute it to.

Could be more injuries are diagnosed and athletes just used to play through those undiagnosed injuries (likely)

Could be worse playing surfaces (not sure)

Could be all the protective equipment makes them weak (likely)

Could be too much heavy weight lifting and too much focus on explosiveness(very likely)

Could be guys are too big(don't think this is it because even sports with smaller athletes still see more injuries)

Could be players are less conditioned(absolutely) guys don't play anywhere near the amount of snaps during games and practices are like 90% "indy" when they used to be about 50% indy 50% team
