Are Injuries broken in Madden?

[Sucram7777]

I don't know if this has been discussed; I haven't seen any recent threads made on the issue. Sorry ahead of time if it has, but here goes:


In my Franchise, Eagles elite DT Fletcher Cox had fractured his Patella. This is a nasty injury that used to be "Career Ending" in older maddens. In this particular case, he was estimated to be out for a whopping 51 weeks.

Several Weeks later, I scroll over the league's injuries again and it says that he's only got 2 weeks left before he's healthy again......like...what??

I was going to get mad and call BS if I seen him in our upcoming game, but the Eagles did put him on IR, and he didn't show.....so I'm glad that works.....

....but how is he healthy?? I feel like he's going to get away from suffering a HUGE Injury Regression at the end of the year; which IS BS. I've seen injuries drop guys by like 4 attribute points in multiple areas.

Anybody else see this happen?

Despite being injured. a player will still take part in practice. They can get injured, and the new injury over-writes the old one. Check what the injury is now.

I never see qbs get hurt. At all. I had a scenario called Flat tire that made Rodgers be hurt for the game but he was still able to play with a ratings hit.

I'm experiencing the same thing with the "Invincible QBs".

Someone was telling me that it's tied to the Fatigue Dynamic; I have mine turned off because it still doesn't work properly in regards to AI management. I guess the side-effect to that is the QB's never sustaining in-game injuries.

Weird that in previous years a lot of us complained so much of the injury bug in this game, all your top players always got injured.

But this year I hardly see many injuries, if I do it’s mostly lineman.

I see plenty. Just never the QB. I know in years past you had to carry 3 qbs to see an injury but I can have 10 on my roster and never get hurt.

I just had Josh Allen leave for the game with a dislocated shoulder and I only have 2 QBs on the depth chart.
