Injuries carrying over to the next season

I disagree that season ending injuries should be the max.  We see injuries that span multiple seasons IRL.  We've also seen career ending injuries IRL.  If you want a real simulation we would even see injuries that occur in preseason practices so that a player might start the year on the injury list.  As for your original point, the game should continue to attempt to mimic real life injuries.

Maybe it is the frequency of the long lasting injuries?  If you want to argue that there are "occasional" long term injuries, then ok.  But it seems every team has at least 1 guy out for multiple seasons.  Scale back the amount of multi-season injuries.
