Request for a mod to update the OP with a running list as they happen. Updates are going to get buried in pages of commentary.

Thank you. And how does practice squad work. The player that you cut has to clear waivers before you can add them to the practice squad?
Yes, if the player has less than 4 accrued NFL seasons and is subject to Waivers.

After 24 hours on Waivers, any players that go unclaimed become unrestricted free agents and can then be added to any teams' Practice Squad.

Practice Squad players can join any team's 53 man roster if given the opportunity, but they are not required to.

Sometimes, the Practice Squad team will increase the player's contract to match the NFL minimum and the player will elect to stay instead of joining a new team's 53.

Yup.

Notable player the Cowboys did that for was Rico Gathers.

One thing to note about the practice squad is teams can have up to 6 players with over 2 years experience.

10 players must have two years or less of accrued seasons(being on the Practice squad counts)
6 can be 2+ years experience.

Anybody see any players cut from other teams that are interesting?
I saw the Colts cut Emil Ekiyor.
I liked him at Alabama and in the draft. He was projected as a 3-4th rounder, but he went undrafted due to a knee concern.

Lance will be on the 53. Why can’t we sign Duggan and place him on the practice squad? Then we can develop our 2024 starting QB and backup QB at the same time. They can be besties….
Why would he sign to be on our practice squad when we have a clear #1 and just traded for a young QB that we are committed to for two year

He blocked me too when he claimed that Schoonmaker was hurt too bad to play this year.
:laugh: Typical Roy. Too proud to admit when he's wrong. I'm kind of surprised he finally admitted a while ago that he obviously was thinking of Lindstrom being here longer than he was. Baby steps. He might be finally coming around.
:muttley:
Maybe he will unblock us? :p
