This year every day you get multiple texts from ESPN about starters going on IR, today alone the Panthers, Bengals and Texans suffered season changing injuries.
Panthers starting DT - IR
Bengals starting TE - IR
Texans starting CB - out 6-8 weeks with a fractured leg (painful ouch)
add in
Eagles starting MLB - out for season
There are probably more, plus our guys, and I am sure guys through out the league.
Any ideas, or is it even possible to do anything to increase the prevention of pre - season injuries?

Wear shell like cushions around the skull of the head and the topside of the shoulders. Additional cushioning should be placed around the lower midsection to protect the left and right hip joints, knees and thighs. Place a cage like structure in front of the eyes so as to protect from any stray protrusions into the face.
...This should make them safer.
