No waiving required. Watch Bill mess with the rest of the League on this. Somehow.
On Wednesday, NFL Media's Mike Garafolo reported that unlimited promotions from the practice squad to the active roster would be allowed for all teams in the postseason. In the past, players were capped at two promotions and had to be technically waived after that second elevation.
This is another rule change that will allow for NFL teams to more easily deal with not only injuries in the postseason, but those who deal with COVID-19 as well. This is just the first reported NFL rule change to come out of Wednesday, as the league is dealing with its worst COVID-19 outbreak since the pandemic started.
