I see those as well and I think it speaks to the progress OOTP has made in dealing with injuries over the last few version. With that being said, I think there still is significant progress to be made.

And it's not just around CEI's but injuries as a whole. Take a player who's out for several weeks with a hamstring injury. Unless that player has a setback, there is no information on how he's doing. So as a manger/GM, I have no idea whether the injury is progressing or not. Has his ability to walk, run, throw(if an arm injury), improved or not? It's still very static. If a player is out with a sprained ankle, generally before he's fully healed, he'll be capable of playing but not at 100%. In OOTP, if an injury is labeled "out" from the beginning vs "day-to-Day", then it stays that way through the duration. It doesn't recognize or give me the option of playing him in a limited role and risking the consequences.
