The Branch cut is interesting. Is this a "permanent" move, or is it because of the injuries....?

Veteran is released outright. No waivers no claims, right? He'll be back when healthy.
Correction: after trade deadline he is indeed on waivers, but injured.

"Branch injured his hamstring Friday and was questionable for Sunday with the Colts. Led to his release, Salas activation."
Injury it is, then. TYVM.

I'm pretty sure vested veterans (5yrs, is it?) don't have to go through waivers. Branch is a complete free agent now.
Question on practice squad signings -- when you sign someone off someone else's PS they have to stay on the 53-man roster for at least three games. What about when you promote from your own PS?

Since it is after the trade deadline he must clear waivers. I think not positive. Only reason I say this is because of Minnesota releasing Moss and him going thru waivers to go to Tennessee.
