I like what this guy had to say about it.

In 2015, New England Patriots coach Bill Belichick said the drill quickly answers these questions: "Who is a man? Who's tough? Who's going to hit somebody?"

Yes players are going to possibly get hurt, nature of the game. Finding out who hits and who doesn't is vital to the success of a team.
