Other players have also found that turning off Pre-Existing Injuries in League Settings can help prevent this.

I just started having this same issue this week after weeks of it never happening, although I've also noticed I get auto-save files that don't have a date when it happens - that field is blank. It's like the auto-save isn't saving correctly...which I wouldn't mind so much if I could just shut it off.

I know this may seem really minor but can you guys confirm your console time and date are set correctly please?

I have the exact same problem. This did not solve it. This problem is not solved in any way.

I have the same exact problem as well. The most frustrating thing I have ever experienced in my over 20 years of playing EA Sports games. This needs to be corrected with a patch. It renders playing the game impossible since I cannot make my own saves!
