Gillislee...Hamstring

[Mace]

It's certainly concerning, then, that Gillislee was unable to finish Wednesday's practice after leaving with a hamstring injury.

I dunno, I just think there's something inept about this training/conditioning staff, they neglect stretching or warmup or something.

Do we really have an inordinate amount of injuries compared to other teams, or is it just our perception because we hear about every one, following the team? Regardless of whether it's 'normal' or not, it sure as hell is frustrating.

No doubt BUF has it's share this season. It pretty much happens to numerous clubs. CIN, for example, lost their #1, #4 picks in camp, ST'er Ced Peerman broke his forearm, DT Brandon Thompson hasn't played a down. Now AJ Greene and Gio Bernard.

Some feel the greatly relaxed pace of training camps the players have demanded and got through the years is one of the culprits.

Interesting read regarding hamstring injuries, which are considered conditioning injuries.


“While you may not see as many injuries initially with a less physically strenuous training camp, a hamstring or soft tissue injury will rear its head at some point during the long season if the player is not conditioned properly,” says Sam Bell, athletic trainer and physical therapist for the Baltimore Ravens.

And then, of course :


Initially intended as a research project, Elliott and the Patriots’ sports medicine staff began the program by individually assessing the team at the end of the season to identify potential weaknesses and imbalances. These factors included hamstring muscle strength, muscle coordination, pelvic alignment while sprinting, and running technique. Players were then given a position-specific program that corrected any observed deficiencies, even addressing sprinting technique. The results were significant: prior to implementing the program, the Patriots had 22 players suffer hamstring injuries, but after the program was implemented that number dropped to three and then two the following season.
