Injury Risk among College Football Players

Abstract

Football is a contact sport with an elevated incidence of high-impact collisions that can result in injuries with varying severity. However, literature on the etiologic risk factors of football-related injuries especially college football is limited. In this paper, we examine whether physiological and socio-behavioral factors deferentially predict injury risk among college football players using data from a Division I football team during the 2016/17 season.
