Adjusted Games Lost also factors in players who are playing through injuries. Teams who can keep their guys healthy, and off of the injury report, will get credit for that with the AGL metric.
Teams put backups on IR all of the time because they don’t want to waste a roster spot on a guy who isn’t going to be ready for a few weeks. They also stash young players on IR when they know they aren’t going to make the team. Just looking at the cumulative number of players on IR doesn’t tell you the entire story.
