Green Bay Packers All-Pro offensive lineman David Bakhtiari was unhappy with NFL Commissioner Roger Goodell's comments about artificial turf.
The NFLPA spoke out about the issue, and NFL executive Jeff Miller said there was no statistical difference in injury data for Achilles' injuries suffered on natural grass versus artificial turf fields. Goodell then spoke on the issue Wednesday.
"You have other players who like playing on the turf field, because it’s faster," Goodell said on ESPN’s"First Take.""So, you’ve got mixed opinions. What we want to go on is science, we want to go on what’s the best from an injury standpoint."Green Bay Packers offensive tackle David Bakhtiari, #69, blocks in the second half during a regular season game between the Green Bay Packers and the Chicago Bears on Sept. 10, 2023, at Soldier Field in Chicago.
