Sources: Nightmare again for the #Chargers, as CB Jason Verrett suffered an injury during the conditioning test that likely will cost him the season. Brutal luck on reporting day.

Hate to see that for any team. Well...except for the Packers.

What a terrible thing. No greater waste then losing a season in practice. Why I think they should shorten the preseason as well. Regular season is a punishment on the body. These practice/conditioning drill injuries are the worst. When you least expect it...

4 pre-season games...Ugh

OTOH, practices have been cut so short. Coaches have so much less time with players now. 

Not sure what the answer is anymore.

We've lost more than our share through the years

I think the soft offseasons are causing more injuries than they are preventing.  Yes a body can wear down,  but it can also lose tolerance.  These guys work out like animals,  but that's not football activity which is more demanding than any workout could be.
