Whalen has been released

Infinitely. The limit, I believe, is how many games have you been on the active roster. Once you are on the active gameday roster x amount of times, you become practice squad ineligible.

In other words, they could elevate and demote you every day if they felt like it, as long as you dont hit the gameday active limit.

Not accurate... Definitely not indefinite. 2 years max or 6 games on active roster max.

It is reported LaVon Brazill got hurt against the Cardinals.  Do they now bring Whalen back up?

Bring Rogers up? Or down?

 

Oh my, isn't this situation getting a bit out of control? 

 

To answer your 4th question, yes, it is getting way out of control. Brazill was hurt as well as Vontae Davis yesterday. We will see if Brazill can heal up for next weekend but if he doesn't play, expect more Fleener/Cunningham/Doyle with TY, DHB and Reed.

    • I'm not saying he is about to be a sack machine but you can see some of his potential as a one gap penetrator with that frame.    
    • Davis came from Alabama. My point of interest as the writer highlighted is he is moving from being a 2 gapper into now only being responsible for a single gap with a lot more penetration from him versus read and react. With his length and power at 6ft 7 300 plus the expectation for him in our scheme is he will be more disruptive. A much more reliable option for us if Grover goes down in addition to whatever else maybe we can do with him.
    • Thank you. You guys are too kind, but I truly appreciate the support.    Perhaps I am being too hard on myself… But my point still stands that anyone who makes it to the NFL, whether practice squad or starter, has achieved something prestigious that only a rare few ever achieve.    Over a million high schoolers play. Of those only 7.8 percent move on to play in college.    Over 80,000 people play in college. Only 0.4 percent make it to opening day in the NFL.    Only 2,016 players make it to NFL rosters. 
    • Davis had a very good rookie season after being drafted in the 2nd round out of Ohio State (I believe).   Graded in the 70’s against both the run and pass.      But his last three years have been disappointing, as he’s graded in the mid-50’s.   The reason I’m so interested in this signing, is (A) I’m sure it was heavily influenced by the new DL coach, Partridge.   And (B) we’re paying him 2/14.  I don’t recall that kind of money ever being given to a basic backup before.   Don’t think Davis is here to push Stewart, the Colts just signed him to 3/39.  That tells me the Colts defensive staff sees him differently.   I don’t know what the plan the staff has come up with for Davis, but I’m looking forward to watching it play out.
