Not really.

The football rules book reads: "Feigning an injury for any reason is unethical. An injured player must be given full protection under the rules, but feigning injury is dishonest, unsportsmanlike, and contrary to the spirit of the rules. Such tactics cannot be tolerated among sportsmen of integrity."

Cal defensive line coach Tosh Lupoi was suspended for one game in 2010 for instructing a player to fake an injury to slow down Oregon's offense.

Still doesn't mean that it's illegal.
