In franchise injuries only occur on the player team?

Product: Madden 17
Platform:Sony Playstation 4
Summarize your bug: I have noticed after going through 17 weeks of my franchise with the injuries set at 50 - I noticed that in-game the only people that are getting injured are my players - I haven't seen once an opponent being injured. I think this may be a issue since I think each team should be able to have injuries if the injuries are turned on and if they are increased. When games are simmed the injuries to take account, since I know with simming week to week people are getting injured.
How often does the bug occur?: Every time (100%)
Steps: How can we find the bug ourselves?: Increase the Injuries slider to 50, and then play a match in franchise or possibly exhibition. You will then see that when there is an injury called - it will be your player and it seems that only the player's team can have injuries in-game.
What happens when the bug occurs?: I get an injury, but after going through 17 games - I noticed in each and every game the only people that were injured were apart of my team - I'm not sure if I'm just lucky or it could be a bug where only the player's team can get injured in-game.
What do you expect to see?: I expect with having injuries increased, that while in-game each team (and not just the player) should have a chance at suffering a injured player - as of now after playing 17 games, I am the only person that had injuries in the game.
If your game crashed, about how many minutes were you playing before it crashed?:
What is your gamertag/PSN ID?: Panicsferd
Date/time issue occurred: 9/1/2016
Did this issue happen in Connected Franchise Mode?: Yes
If yes, how many users are in your league?: 1
If yes, how many players are in your league?: 0
If yes, how many coaches are in your league?: 0
If yes, how many owners are in your league?: 1

After increasing the sliders for Injuries, I have noticed after playing through 17 weeks in my offline franchise mode as a owner for the packer that it seems as if the injury slider only affects my team while in-game... throughout my 17 weeks in-game I noticed that whenever there was a injury it was always my players and not the other teams.

and throughout all those games, I haven't seen a single injury for the other team... so I think it must be a bug or something that only the player's team can suffer injuries where the opponent team cannot.

    I have seen injuries for other teams.  I've seen it both in game and by checking out the injury report between games.  Do any teams have injuries on the injury report?  If so, then you've just been unlucky that only your players get injured during a game.  If not, then yeah, that seems like a bug.

    To be fair, I play 15 minute quarters, so I have a much higher chance of seeing injuries.  I do observe, however, that there are usually more injuries for me than for the AI.

    That is why I'm not sure if I am just completely unlucky or if it is a bug. When I check the injury report, it does show people has being injured... but they only got injured during when I would sim to the next week.

    Otherwise for the 17 games (well 21 if you count pre-season) the only players that were injured were part of my time and I haven't seen one the other team suffer an injury in-game, and because of that I think it may be a bug, since you'd think after 17 games I would have seen at least another team suffer an injury with it being set at 50 (I did originally have it set at like 75 for my first 5-6 games and seen nothing then, but decided to drop it since with it at 75, the simmed injuries were out of control - each team had like 20 injuries).

    edit: I play on 8 minutes quarters myself, so maybe that could have something to deal with it possibly, I'm not sure.

    Can you possibly test with 15 minute quarters to see if that is actually a factor?

    I will try that now in my franchise for a a single game (since I'm in the playoffs now and really don't want to play to many games with these new settings.

    After playing two full games with 15 minute quarters with the packers vs cardinals in my franchise mode which was a divisional match - the first game which had injuries set at 45 and fatigue at 60 there were no injuries for that game.

    I then decided to change the injuries back to how it was for my first 6 or so games (I mainly dropped it to 50, since simmed games injuries were out of control, each team had like a dozen or more good players injured) which was at 65.

    I am currently at the third quarter of my second game and so far I had three packer injuries and no cardinal injuries yet, so I think it is still the same problem I had with 8min quarters, maybe my game save itself could be bugged.

    A thing that I have noticed, that now that I am in the second season of my franchise mode that while I was in pre-season with 8 minutes quarters I seen injuries for the other team and not just my own team... but then now that I am in week 1-2 it was the same thing where the only injuries were of my team and I still have the injuries set at 45.

    I think either it may have been fixed in a new update, or I may have just been unlucky the first season not seeing any other team suffer injuries. As of now I am on week 3 or 4 facing the panthers as the packers and still at 8min quarters I have finally seen another team suffer an injury and it is only half way done with the first quarter.

    I think it may work now, so maybe before I was just plain unlucky to not see a single injury on the other team the first season?

    At least this does not appear to be bugged/broken. Maybe let us know a little further down the line how you are getting on with this. Thanks for posting your update.
