I would expect this to run rampant in the NFL, but it's much harder for one player to have direct influence over the score like the NBA.

Its harder to obfuscate injury status in the NFL

and with shorter seasons + nonguaranteed, incentive based paychecks the players often aren't going to hold themselves out unless they have to

In the NBA its 82 games. Trainer says "You might be able to play, depends how you feel". You go out there for a quarter say "I can't keep going". Thats it.

NFL that whole equation is much more convoluted.

So far, it seems like players on bad teams are the ones bold enough to try this.

What's been up with him since joining the Heat tho? Has he played much or has he been injured a lot there too?
Can any Heat fans chime in? Has he been doing suspect shyt since joining the team?
:jbhmm:

Dude in the comments saying Malik Beasley

But whether he right or wrong, I think you’d be naive to think it begins and ends with 2 players

I recall a poster here last year or the year before saying this about Rozier before it became big news

EDIT

There it is
Terry Rozier was the player last season, his final game where he checked out early at end of first quarter then didn’t play rest of season

Just wait til the whole iceberg is out of the water

Damn man. More players are coming?

Whole thing is just SAD

This guy on Twitter had the inside scoop and made.
$1k? On a $500 bet?

And with all this its just free advertising for FanDuel to ruin the next suckers life.

Men aren’t coy ngga. :bryan: ‘I know sum but I’m not gon tell but I want you to know I know sum’ ahh
I would not argue with that dude about THIS subject
