Perhaps I'm too lazy to check in the in-game index, but does the game feature a way to tell if the player is injury prone? Is susceptibility to injuries a hidden attribute a la CM? It's easy to see whether a player is a worthy buy in CM along the injury front because you can just look at his injury history. Is there anything like this in FOF2K4? Do you assume that if a decent player hasn't played in all 16 games that he is injury prone?

Injury proneness is a hidden attribute in FOF, although you can usually tell about their injury likelihood by checking their past seasons to see how many games they've missed. A serious injury will often cause a previously injury free player to become very injury prone, so pay particular attention to their most recent seasons.

There is speculation that once a player suffers a "severe" injury--he may be more likely to be injury prone. If you see that a player has missed a big chunk of time one year and then never played 16 games after that, you want to be careful.

My team right now has two injury prone TEs. Between the two of them, I generally have one good one to start. However, there are times when I have to go to the srubs because both of them are OUT with injury.
