My point, truly, is ever since this latest CBA was ratified, injuries across the league have increased measurably. Not just Washington.
The latest CBA is where they changes the rules of off season work outs and practices. No more pads in practice until after a specified date and only a small number of padded practices allowed. No contact in practice. Less OTAs requirements for strength and fitness. All of these were tools to get players in shape for the season and be prepared for the abuse their bodies were gong through. And they were tools that were, above all, designed to REDUCE the number of in season injuries.
I am just not one to blame injuries on the failure of my team personally. However, I will always take measure with a player that is not doing his job. I do not think that #2 or #3 on the depth chart is cut any slack by the coaches, his team mates or in the film room just because his name is not Sean Lee.
