Why do NFLmos blow ACLs left and right but other sports it's really rare?

my guess also is that QBs for the most part are doing no strength training which would help build up the musculature around the knees |

I don't doubt that some QBs are actually doing heavy squats/deadlifts to build up and strengthen hip/knee musculature. I do think probably half of NFL strength/training coaches won't do anything aside from stretching/plyometrics/"functional" drills with their highest-paid players because of the fear that the QB/RB/darling WR gets injured and they're out of a career |
