There is always a chance for injury, even in practice. 4 preseason games allows for a great transition physically and mentally into playing a full season, every snap, every down. Also, this is the last chance for the team to make the proper decisions on the depth chart. If you are the guy on the edge of making the team, you want as many chances as you can to prove you are an asset to the team.
what’s the point? another what’s the point? another chance for injury, no one really plays anyway, they all sit out.
