Two Jake Longs on this team? Sorry, we have enough injured players on this team without adding two more.

He was on a hall-of-fame trajectory his first 5 years with the Dolphins and injuries have knocked him off that...hope he gets back to it.

Or are torn ACLs happening a lot more in the last 10 year as football has gone to artificial turf? Could it also be that players are just over doing work outs? Or could this be a by byproduct of PED use?

I am convinced that artificial turf plays a large roll in the increase of ACL tears we see. I haven't done the reaserch to back it up, but I that has been my first hand experience.
I've played soccer at a high level for most of my life. I've played just about everyday from elementary school through college without an issue. I've now torn my ACL twice on turf within the last 3 years. Out of roughly a total of 15 soccer games played on turf in my life... I've torn my ACL twice.

Study finds ACL injuries more common on FieldTurf
http://profootballtalk.nbcsports.com/2010/03/12/study-finds-acl-injuries-more-common-on-fieldturf/
The NFL’s Injury and Safety Panel presented a study today finding that anterior cruciate ligament injuries happened 88 percent more often in games played on FieldTurf than in games played on grass, the Associated Press is reporting.
http://www.reuters.com/article/2012/09/14/us-nfl-leg-injuries-idUSBRE88D1KT20120914
They found players suffered 1,528 knee sprains and 1,503 ankle sprains during those games, and both types of injuries were 22 percent more common in games played on FieldTurf. In particular, ACL sprains - often considered season-ending injuries - were 67 percent more common on FieldTurf than on natural grass.

realize this issue has come full circle. grass-artificial turf- grass- artificial turf
Yes, artificial surfaces seem to result in more injuries.

I love Jake Long, but this is why the Dolphins let him walk.
October 27th, 2014 at 10:56 AM ^
I don't see two healthy Jake Longs doing much better.
