Players can take out insurance to some extent.
But in reality, players take this risk all the time, otherwise players would not reach UFA status.
I think that’s the reason you see players sign longer term first contracts that eat up some UFA’s years. They get their lifetime security money. Then they are free to gamble when they get close to UFA, as they already have lifetime security.
And not too many players get that career ending injury. It’s rare, I am trying to think of a current example?
