I would think the physics of the football game would destroy a 7 foot wide receiver. The extra length of the bones would cause much more leverage and force on knees, elbows, shoulders…other joints. I don’t know the formula but much more force is available with a longer lever. The force coming down from a catch with an extra the extra weight or hit from a 200-260lb db or lb would be magnified. Basketball is a physical game for sure…but nothing like the violence of football. Running into someone at full speed is supposed to be a foul in BB.
