Playing through small injuries leads to larger injuries. If your coach were paying you thousands or millions of dollars per game, they would not want you to wreck yourself and end up missing games.

Even as a white guy with citizenship, coming back into the US was a pain in the ass 10 and 20 years ago. And my friends with student visas and green cards were occasionally hassled for no clear reasons. I can't imagine how stressful that experience would be now, especially for anyone without a US passport or who lands on the wrong end of the color card in that Peter Griffin meme.
