Sources: The #Chiefs are placing WR Marquise "Hollywood" Brown on IR, and he will undergo surgery to repair his dislocated SC joint. After multiple imaging studies, it was determined that, although Hollywood felt better, his injury was not healing correctly. Without corrective… pic.twitter.com/xtRRMvmseq

I'm like i'm going to tell you the same thing that Dad told us every year, and those are the years when we sucked, "It's only Preseason."

On the contrary imagine, we lose Rice, Browns out. We fight and claw our way to another Super Bowl and the rest of the league gives up.

News at 6.

Yes, the NFL is notoriously known for bigger players getting hurt more than smaller guys.

It seems that the smaller players would get injured more often. This is a big boy game. But, getting to the NFL for a smaller player shows that they can take a hit without getting injured.

Yes.

Offensive lineman suffer the most frequent injuries. They aren't even in high contact or dangerous spots either.

"In general, the offensive lineman positions are found to sustain the highest number of injuries while the individual position with the highest rate of injury is the running back. Other dangerous positions include the linebacker and wide receiver positions."

"Aren't in high contact or dangerous spots".

Do you watch football?

The guys that are contacted every play, every snap, with multiple other big bodies around them aren't in high contact or dangerous spots. Seems right.

Offensive lineman aren't contacted at high speed like smaller guys (running backs, wide receivers, returners, and sometimes quarterbacks) and even then they still have the most frequent injuries.

And you are relating this to the fact that they're bigger, hence they get injured more.

Nothing to do with the fact that they're in contact on every play, with multiple other bodies around them. Play in play out.

But it's because they're big. THat's the argument you are making here?

In the NBA too, the bigger you are the more difficult it is to have a long career. Not many 7ft 1+ guys make it over a long career. Same with really heavy guys.

There is no evidence to suggest smaller guys are more injury prone than larger guys. In the real world, there is actually evidence to the contrary.

Andy Reid said Marquise Brown didn’t need surgery in a Jacksonville hospital to repair the sternoclavicular dislocation he sustained Saturday night.

Simple physics would dispute it, but carry on.

Seems it wouldn't. More lbs creates more strain on tendons, joints, knees etc. Gravity and kinetic energy are undefeated.

The why, what, and where's of these injuries don't matter...It's the NFL and they're paid a lot of money to be on the field (that's why Mahomes is more focused on flexibility than being yoked). Based on all of these tweaks and dislocations and fractures he's got something like an eight to nine percent chance that he gets hurt every game he plays. Mahomes is probably less than one percent. Tyreek or Cooper Cup are something like 4-5% and Cooper Cup gets killed for his injuries.

You are aware of Newton's Third Law of Motion, right?
