I have an injured player I want to play in my last two big games of the season. He should be around 60 health for the first big game and 70 for the second one. How big of a risk is it to play him at those levels.

I've never played anyone until they get to 80% so I can't tell you if you're risking a worse injury.  I wouldn't take a chance unless it was my only chance to make the NT>

 Reduce his skill ratings to 60% of their current level and see if he's still better than the backup.

I agree 100% with alblack56. I have always figured the risks of re-injury would be fairly high anywhere below 80% and even at that level there is some risk. At 80% I still reduce the playing time and never use the player as a starter. As Al said, compute his reduced skills and then decide if he is better than his replacement.
