And when you do, you're drawing on the etymology of expedite itself. The word comes from the Latin verb expedire (to set free or to make useful), a word that in turn traces back to the root ped-or pes, meaning foot. Expedite has been used in English since at least the 15th century.
In a report released Friday called Dangers of the Game of Football, the NFLPA says injuries increased from 3.2 to 3.7 per week per team and the share of players injured increased to 63 percent compared to a 2002-09 average of 59 percent.
If you want to calculate the number of injuries of a given type that were sustained since 2000, you can divide the blue column by the red column. For example, ACLs led to about 4,800 weeks missed, at about 10.5 weeks per injury -- about 4,800 weeks/10.5 weeks/injury = 450 ACL injuries have occurred since 2000.
