Recently in the NFL, there have been a startling amount of injuries in the first 5 weeks. Many star players have come down with major and minor injuries and many sports fanatics wonder if having no preseason has affected players' health.


According to Pro Football Reference, stars like Julio Jones, Jimmy Garappolo, Dak Prescott, and Cam Newton have had to miss games in the first couple of weeks, just to name a few players. It appears safe to say there have been a lot of injuries involving COVID-19, torn ACLs, and many other long-term injuries.


COVID-19 has continued to affect many NFL teams. The Tennessee Titans lie at the center of controversy, as they've had 19 positive tests. Despite these health and safety concerns, the team continued to practice, breaking the protocol set by the NFL. Many NFL fans worry that the Titans’ actions may have long-term ramifications on the NFL season., with many worried that the season might come to an early end.
