NFL training camp isn’t without tough injuries, given the violence associated with football. Here are the most impactful NFL training camp injuries so far.

Their may not be anything more devastating to an NFL team than to lose a key player in practice during NFL training camp. Football is a violent game and injuries are just part of the sport. However, losing a player to injury in glorified practices never sit well with those who follow the sport.

2016 hasn’t been any different as a few notable players have been hurt this offseason. Some will miss all the 2016 NFL preseason. A few will miss at least some part of of the 2016 NFL regular season. There’s even a few guys that seem to have had their 2016 NFL campaign come to a close before it even begins.

Football is a sport that buys in to the next man up mentality. In a sport that is notoriously violent and with non-guaranteed contracts, having depth is as crucial as it has ever been in the NFL. The good teams will be able to offset certain losses due to injury to key players, while badly run organizations won’t be able to overcome this kind of adversity.

With NFL training camp still in its infancy, here are the most impactful preseason injuries to have occurred across the entire National Football League thus far in the early part of August 2016.
