More NFL Players Injured As Debate Over Turf Fields Heats Up: ‘Something Has To Change’
www.forbes.com
Jaelan Phillips tore his Achilles in Week 12 of NFL play. Knee and leg injuries to players making more than $312.2 million combined this year are the crux of a debate over artificial turf and natural grass fields.

Sorry if this has been posted before, I didn’t see it. Found this interesting.

23 Major leg injuries so far this season.

13 on Turf, 10 on grass

Most common location is M&T Bank stadium (Baltimore) - Grass, followed by Minneapolis-Turf, and Tottenham Hotspur (London) -Turf.

So, super small sample size, and I can’t find good historical data on injuries vs stadia. But I expected MetLife to be the worst given it’s reputation.

    You might need a larger sample size of leg injuries to make any significant inferences
