I was curious about the impact of endurance on playing team. Since in the draft there are sometimes well-rated but low endurance players and I'm usually weary of selecting them.
I set up a career using the Steelers and turned injuries off. I then picked a high endurance player and a low endurance player in six different groups. I then simmed 10 seasons with the 6 high endurance players and 10 with the low endurance players. I replaced them in the exact same spots in teh depth chart and set their playing time to 100%. I then looked at their total plays.
Overall, a high endurance player will tend to get in about 20% more plays than the low endurance player. It appears that it might be less important for wide receivers.
