NFLPA's latest data reveals players experienced fewer injuries on grass vs. artificial turf in 2022
Fox News
The NFLPA claimed data on injury rates on grass and turf supplied by the NFL during the 2022 season was misleading. New data from the union shows higher injury rates on turf.
A majority of players have spoken out on their preference for natural grass over turf. Many NFL athletes argue it is not only safer but puts less of a strain on the body. Chantz Martin is a sports writer for Fox News Digital.
Player's union President J.C. Tretter wrote an essay noting that the injury rate on natural grass surfaces dropped from 2021 to 2020. Tretter addressed the 2021 data by saying the rates being essentially the same that year was an "outlier."
