If you scroll down to the position groups, you see that there are more injuries to WRs in the 170-190 group than there are in the 190-210 group. The only group with a higher injury rate are the heaviest WRs, 230-250. 210-230 is lower than the lightest and heaviest.

Scroll down to the WR graph. Findings are below the graph.

The strongest predictors of injuries for Wide Receivers are targets from season prior (higher = more injury prone), height (taller = more injury prone), weight (lighter = more injury prone), yards per game from season prior (lower = more injury prone), fumbles (higher = more injury prone), and games missed in season prior (higher = more injury prone).
Many of the players at the top of the list have thin frames (Will Fuller) or missed games in the prior year (Odell Beckham).
Players of note with low injury risk: JuJu Smith Schuster, Doug Baldwin, Julio Jones, Tyreke Hill.
