US EditionSprains, Strains and ACL Tears: What to Know About some of NFL Players’ Most Common Injuries
UNITED STATES, JUL 23 – The 17-game NFL season demands physical endurance leading to common injuries like ACL tears, concussions, and hamstring strains that affect team performance, experts said.
- During games and practices in the NFL season, players suffer sprains, strains, and ACL tears, with the latter potentially ending a season.
- Last year, the NFL and NFL Players Association approved Guardian Caps aimed at reducing head injuries.
- A Grade III hamstring injury is a complete tear likely season-ending, often requiring surgery and a four-to-six-month recovery.
- For NFL teams, managing injuries to key players can determine season success, and injuries' role is as significant as strategy.
- Rare foot injuries such as Lisfranc sprains can be career-threatening, while turf toe can sideline players for months and hampers cutting and running.
