Week each season bye weeks that were performed as scheduled were not counted as Game schedule secondary to the COVID-19 pandemic. Midseason interruptions were defined as any facility shutdowns or change in team Was noted if the injury occurred after a COVID-19-associated midseason interruption. The injury setting was classified as practice or game. In-season injuries, season games, season snaps, and game snaps were recorded.

This was a descriptive epidemiology study that was performed retrospectively based on That there would be no associations between snaps and games played on ACL tear rates by Proportion of ACL tears in-season in 2020 compared with prior years, that there would beĪ greater proportion of ACL tears in 2020 in the 1st month of regular season play, and We hypothesized that there would be a higher NFL athletes and to determine if differences in ACL tear epidemiology were present based The purpose of this study was to evaluate the association of game play on ACL tears in Risk specifically during the 2020 NFL season (September 10, 2020-January 3, 2021) have
4 However, the influences of the COVID-19 pandemic and midseason delays on ACL tear Organizational changes including the lack of preseason due to the COVID-19 pandemic.
