Sure.
But not fielding your best team and potentially losing a game(s) that keeps you from the playoffs/home game/bye/whatever because you were worried someone would get hurt?
Dude could play 10 snaps a game to keep him "healthy" and then blow an ACL on the first play of the first playoff game. Hell, he could blow it on one of the 10 snaps they are "managing". Sure, sit your best WR because you're *****ing worried*
Sorry, that *is* something to be laughed at.

We're a 99% chance to make the playoffs at this point. I have zero problem with taking it easy on two of our potential playmakers (Toney and McKinnon) to ensure they're good to go when it counts.
