Are they allowed? Are they different than in season? Just wondering, since so many injuries occur for everyone now. We've managed ours pretty well, IMO, if we have problems somewhere.

Limitations, same, or no?
 
No limitations that I can think of. They can sign their PS players or any other current free agent. The only restriction I can think of would be players that have already signed futures contracts with other teams being ineligible.
 
Which is why Montee Ball is sitting in saunas and guzzling water to lose weight in case Steven Jackson goes down. We have only 3 RBs on the active roster. If a team couldn't go to the PS during the playoffs, my guess is that Ball (or some other FA) would have been called up by now.
 
You are allowed to sign up to 4 free agents or other teams practice squad players during the playoffs. But no more than 2 during the same week.

Your own practice squad players are not counted in the limit.
 
Thanks. Must have misremembered something. The way this game has become one of attrition, a ready practice squad seems an advantage.

Where'd you find that?
