So the claim that Niners are the most injured team every single year is both incorrect and hyperbolic.
It's the most injured team in the league every year. We must be really unlucky. Or there is something wrong.

My guess is most of these camp injuries are ways to stay out of practice. Unless there's surgery involved they're mostly minor involving soreness that comes with contact. Think back to when you played high school ball and remember how siore you were after the first few practices. The difference is you couldn't jst sit out and expect to make the team.
Yeah. I guess you never heard the coach say how many injuries pre season they deal with before. So it's a shock when Kyle says 22 of them are affected.

Yeah we should just cool off on the injury issue as it is probably not a 49ers FO fault.
Coaching expectation and player attitude perhaps?. I get worried when I see the likes of CMC, Deebo and others play without fear too many times. But as a fan I love it.
