[QUOTE="HyponGrey, post: 509267, member: 6441"] Like the practice squad, there is some misconception here. I couldn't find a thread, and figured it would be nice to have one in the archives like the Practice Squad explanation. Players that have participated in any Training Camp practices (July+) or exhibition games are ineligible for the PUP. Once they participate in TC they cannot be placed on the PUP list to start the season; they must go to IR, be released, or be kept on the active roster. The maximum number of players at any time under any circumstance is 90. That means that any reserve player (suspended, PUP, IR, NFI, etc) counts against the offseason roster. Once you cut to 75 [B]ACTIVE[/B] players, reserves are counted as inactive, and therefore do not count against any active roster, but still count against the total 90 man roster. PUP lasts for 6 weeks, after which point teams have a 3 week window to determine whether they want to activate the player to the active roster, send the player to IR, or simply release him. During the three week period the player is allowed to practice with the team. Players on PUP and IR are not allowed to participate in practice. Players on IR are only eligible to be designated for return if they counted against the 53 man active roster. If a Team has 90 men total on a roster, and wishes to place another player on injured reserve, they must release a player currently inactive player in order to do so. If that player is currently designated as an injured player, he must be released through an injury settlement. [/QUOTE]
