I don’t think that’s right.

80,000 a year, over an 18-week schedule is around 4,444 per week, spread out over 32 teams equals about 138-140 per team, per week. If you just figured a 53-man roster that would be only 3-4 per person per week, which is not abnormal.

The 53-man roster is just what is active on Sunday, not counting the practice squad and players that are injured.

Yes, I think you’re right. ~ 4500 per week for the league, not per team. I read that wrong.

It’s still gross :)
