re: Death of Fan before Sept. 11 Game (RIP) 40 years old: Chicopee man died at Gillette Stadium before Sunday's game, officials say

Where do I pick up my prize money? :D

I think the poster might be from across the pond. In British English, that sentence would be "New England are in Atlanta." But in American English, it's "New England is in Atlanta." In American English, though, it would be "The Patriots are in Atlanta."

Sounds familar. :)

Welker already counted against the 80-man roster. Burgess going on DNR already created a spot, so they were at 79 to begin with.

Right, but that's not the issue here. It's whether a player who was *not* placed on Active/PUP but nonetheless did *not* practice is still eligible for Reserve/PUP.

I think so as well, but there is definitely a gray area there.

He's not under contract, so he doesn't need to be there. He can't be placed on any Active/ or Reserve/ list either, since he's not under contract.

No, veterans do not report until tomorrow, which is when the run is. Welker and Crable have known injuries (per SMY, on Crable), which is probably why they were put on the list early. Same is probably true with Jenkins.

Re: Pats place Welker, Crable, Weston on Active/PUP; Jenkins and T. Johnson to Active Shalise tweeted that Crable is injured.

Re: Pats place Welker, Crable, Weston on Active/PUP; Jenkins and T. Johnson to Active Yes, I believe that's allowed. But generally they are rehabing to get back.

Re: Pats place Welker, Crable, Weston on Active/PUP; Jenkins and T. Johnson to Active No, players on Active/PUP or Active/NFI can be activated at any time.

The problem is, the pair of Wright and Green had its share of problems against the run.
