Because St. Louis tried to snatch him last year and they are in the same boat again this year and I believe Payton really wants to try to groom this kid and doesn't want to risk losing him.

Just because he had two bad games doesn't mean teams no longer see anything in him.

Edit:
And to be more specific, he has a big arm and good accuracy (especially on the deep ball) if allowed to set. Teams are willing to take chances on a guy like that because they figure his decision making and consistent will improve with time. There is much to work with.

We can't afford keeping a 3rd QB, especially when we've got Stills nursing a quad.

This is the only reason I can see us keeping 3, and if we do I think it will only be for a few weeks. If it wasn't for the team who tried to sign him last year needing a QB, I think he would be waived now for the PS.

ETA: IIRC, there were a few other teams besides us interested in signing Ball this year, so sneaking him on the PS might be difficult.
