Uh-oh! New York Giants Among the Injury Prone in Upcoming NFL Season
Are you ready for some football? The NFL season is right around the corner and a new study has taken a look at the injury risks that are just around the corner. If you're a New York Giants fan, hang on because your team may have some hurdles to overcome.
So, who's leading the pack when it comes to the most injury-prone teams? Believe it or not but it's the Tennessee Titans, with a 224 games missed by their players from 2020 to 2023. They'll be kicking off against the Chicago Bears come September 8th.
Coming in a close second are the New Orleans Saints, with 188 games missed by players. They will also begin their season on September 8th against the Carolina Panthers.
Next up is the San Francisco 49ers, they've had 187 games missed by their players over the past few seasons. They look to stay injury free when they get ready to tackle Aaron Rogers and the New York Jets on September 9th at Levi's Stadium. Let's see if Rogers can last longer than 4 plays this year.
Arizona Cardinals take the fourth spot with 170 games missed by their players. Fifth place brings us to the Detroit Lions, with 163 players listed as out for regular season games during the 2020-2023 season.
Here's where New York Giants fans may start to get a little nervous. They rank sixth on the list, the Giants have had 155 players listed as out for regular season games in the last few seasons including Daniel Jones.
Are you happy that he's back under center to begin the season against the Minnesota Vikings on September 8th? As a Washington Commodores fan, I'm thrilled that he's calling the signals to start the season.
