I didn't expect off-ball injuries to get in this year, personally. With that in user teams can no longer get away with rostering only five OLs while CPU teams rostered up to ten. That change by itself will make franchise roster construction more interesting and more competitive.

Great news.
Wasn't the hit stick always on the RS, with a low and high option? The only difference I see is removing it from the button (good choice).

Heck Yes!

The coverage assignments announcement was nice, but this is huge imo. First time I've been happily surprised by EA in a while.

Shaping up to be a dang good football year.

Off-Ball Injuries does not mean offensive line injuries unless my English betrays me. Surely it means non-contact? The guys in that twitter link seem to not understand the term, I'm not convinced OL guys will get injured because that's not what Rex confirmed. This still doesn't mean the OL injury bug has been fixed tbh
