Re: Practice Squad information as it is formed...
No, that's wrong.
A waiver claim means the player is on the 53, but there is absolutely no requirement to stay there any length of time. Dallas could cut Rogers tomorrow.
If Dallas does cut him, and he then clears waivers (the waiver process would start over for him) and they offer him a spot on their practice squad, he could be on their PS this week. They are likely legitimately interested in him for the 53, but a claim like this could also be a way of getting him to agree to join their PS rather than ours.
Yes he does for a certain amount of time a few weeks and than you can than go practice squad if you want and can (meaning no one else claims him for a 53).Dom said:I though that if a player is claimed on waivers he HAS to be on the 53?
