Of course they're dinged up. It's not like anyone was getting hit in camp this year.... #goodellsnewnfl

Good point. It seems kinda counterintuitive at first, in terms of player safety, but if you're not getting hit in camp, or not practicing at full speed in pads, it comes as more of a surprise when you get out there and the games are live, and you won't be as prepared for the hits and contact.
