They have to make the 53 first. If a guy is put on IR during camp his season is over unless injury settlement is reached. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TigerJ Posted August 19, 2019 Share Posted August 19, 2019 6 hours ago, DallasMac said: I think it's just a matter of keeping him healthy until the season starts. He might've been showing some minor symptoms and they decided to shut him down until game 1. I have zero doubt he starts against the Jets. I don't think there is any coaching input into concussion protocol. It is a medical issue only. If he has symptoms, even minor ones, he's not going to be cleared. If he is cleared, the Bills don't have to play him, but they can't say he's still in the protocol. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Id imagine they'd like to get Morse to practice and take on some contact with the 1st stringers before just starting him week 1. The guys been in concussion protocol since the 1st padded practice, I doubt they'd just plug and play him considering his history. I think they'd need to seem him take on some contact once free from concussion protocol and be symptom free. So what do you think? They are going to risk putting him in a meaningless preseason game?

I thought in that situation, they don't have to be part of the original 53 man roster. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

A player designated as PUP must be promoted to the active roster by week 6 of the regular season or placed on IR, and a player on PUP does not count against the 53.

You have to have come into camp broken. If you get broken during camp that's an IR situation. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
