Training camp hitting?

Question

why dont they do hitting drills in nfl training camp and practice?

Answer 1

1. They don't want injuries

2. These people already know how to hit

3. They practice 3 times a day

4. The coaches don't want them to be burnt out towards the end of the season.

Answer 2

Football is now a 12 month of the year job. Players work to stay in shape all year. Besides, with the money the owners are throwing around, teams are much more fearful of injuries. Training camp is nothing more than a glorified minicamp. I went and watched the Bears practice one day. The lack of physical training involved was shocking. It's a different game nowadays.

Answer 3

cuz they're in the nfl thy already know how to hit so it pointless to risk getting anyone injured

Answer 4

Because they cant afford injuries
