PoeticG Posted October 14, 2016 Report Share Posted October 14, 2016 What is the injury requirement now, 8 weeks? Placing him on Temporary IR will allow us to bring in the much needed manpower to send at this injury plague. This is exactly why the NFL need to increase roster size. Sometimes you need it. There should be lower salaries for the top players and more players in general. More games, bigger rosters, more players(God knows there is talent out there just wishing for an opportunity). I Wish Football played as many games as basketball or baseball. Increase the roster size. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gumby73 Posted October 14, 2016 Report Share Posted October 14, 2016 Increase the roster size. And fix IR rules. Out 8 weeks is far to long for some with 200 on it this season. Does not include the other 5-6 on inactive per team that coaches our betting on that will be ready in 4-6 weeks.Unless your name is Shon"redshirt"Coleman Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tour2ma Posted October 14, 2016 Report Share Posted October 14, 2016 Expanded roster will happen... when league goes to a 16 game season... but... Given the decline in ratings, I do not see more games by teams with diluted talent as a remedy. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

hoorta Posted October 18, 2016 Report Share Posted October 18, 2016 Bitonio underwent successful foot surgery - will be ready for next season. I was afraid it was a Lisfranc fracture, he's done for the year. It's putting a screw into the broken bone, no weight bearing for at least 6 weeks.

There's other ways too. Like torn pectorals or biceps tendons- this injury seems to be happening more and more. Never heard of it 10 years ago.
