Then he has to be on the roster through wednesday. You cannot IR a player before that day if you want to designate him.

This could be the reason why we are getting conflicting reports(they would want to keep it under wraps until it happens).

That could also be the reason we kept 6 ILBs because we want the other 5 for the whole season. Very possible come Wednesday we see the return of Richardson or another OLB.

"Under the rule a player can be placed on injured reserve after Sept. 4, which doesn't end his season and allows him to return after six weeks."

LINK /

"However, only players who are placed on the Reserve/Injured list after 4:00 p.m., New York time, next Tuesday, September 4, or anytime thereafter, are eligible to be reactivated at a later point in the season."

LINK

"In order for a team to designate a player for return, the one player selected must be immediately "designated for return" at the time he is placed on the list. Teams cannot make the IR with return designation until after 1:00 p.m. PT on September 3."

There was another that said the 4th(which I can't find), but I'm seeing either the 3rd or 4th and different times so I'm not sure which one is correct.

Either way we find out today or tomorrow.

Butler has been on PUP since before training camp and isn't taking up a spot so it doesn't make sense to do anything else with him.

The IR decision for him will come week 9 or 10.

Thanks, been trying to get an answer for that for a couple of days.

I just assumed we were IRing Butler w/ return.

That's what I assumed.
Because it seems to make more sense.

Butler hasn't been taking up a spot all preseason since he's been on reserve PUP. If we were to put him on IR designated to return he would have to first be on the active roster meaning we would have to cut and risk losing someone.

Makes no sense since PUP and IR designated to return are basically the same thing and you can only put one guy on the second.
