Maybe someone smarter than me can interpret this, because I’m not understanding how they came to their conclusion. According to this study, the average number of injuries during Sunday games was 21.4 compared to Thursday games at 21.7 but the difference is “negligible”. I feel like they didn’t take into account the fact only one game is played on fewer Thursdays, as opposed to the majority of games taking place every Sunday.

20 injuries per game? Is a scrape counted in this?

In manufacturing we have separate injury categories to differentiate between minor and major injuries. How many dafw injuries happen per game?;
