Being injury "prone" isn't a thing. A lot of it is luck more than anything.
I'm going to disagree here.
Tee Higgins has been on injury reports with hamstring injuries each of the last 5 straight years.
Thomas Davis had ACL tears in 3 straight years.
Steve Smith had 4 fractures in his career.
Bob Sanders.
Ben Roethlisberger only played 16 games in 5 of 18 years.
Some guys just have more fragile bones, more fragile ACLs, tighter hamstrings, less pain tolerance, or just entire bodies. Not even listing anyone for the fact that some guys just get concussions way easier than others.
Sure, some of it is luck (Eifert stepping on a football), but I entirely reject that being injury prone isn't a thing and it's luck.
