49ers stars even-keeled on electromagnetic field injury theory: 'I have no other choice'
The San Francisco 49ers have been riddled with injuries in recent years, and there is a theory about why.
A viral theory, albeit unproven, says the 49ers’ unusually high number of soft tissue and non-contact injuries might be due to electromagnetic fields (EMFs) from a big electrical substation next to their practice fields and Levi’s Stadium in Santa Clara.
The claim is that being around it for years could weaken tendons and soft tissue, leading to more ACL tears, Achilles injuries, hamstring pulls and similar issues.
