A tackle in soccer can and has shattered bones on many occasions. Torns ligaments are a regular occurrence, as are snapped hamstrings. Not to mention the massive problem of brain trauma, caused by blows to the head, in the sport recently, it is absolutely a contact sport. But I agree with the premise of this thread, they know the risks and are getting paid millions to take that risk.
