I thought this also, but I read an article a year ago (I will try and find it) and the injury facts did not back up the argument and less injuries have occurred in Thursday games over the years, both season ending and other injury.
That article shocked me as all I can think of was Geno A. at Miami.
The study is done (according to the article) as a discussion point with the players association each year. It was done prior to Thursday night football going full blown and is down each year as it was also a major concern for both coaches and players.
I am so ready for 2024 season. I love pro football and hoping for a great Bengals year. Regardless, always remember it is a game and entertainment.
