Cory's Corner: Player Safety Demands A CBA Change

With Jake Ryan tearing his ACL and ending his 2018 season before it started, it’s time the NFL Players Association and the owners went back to the drawing board.

Ryan’s injury made the number of players that had an ACL tear stand at seven. That’s a huge number before a single preseason game has started.

It’s time for NFL players to be able to practice more. A lot of these season-ending injuries are because of chance and randomness but there are some that are due in part because the player hasn’t been able to get on the field enough.
