Actually I didn't know that but it makes sense

 

Not sure the quality of the source, but this article is from 2018:

 

http://footballnextlevel.com/tag/2019-practice-squad-pay/

 

Practice Squad: The maximum players allowed on a NFL teams practice squad is 10.  A practice squad player can sign with any teams 53 man roster at any time and if signs with another team then its own the player is guaranteed 3 regular season game checks (Assuming there is 3 regular season games left).

 

EDIT: Okay, I can confirm this. Here is the 2020 CBA. The following is an excerpt from Article 33, Practice Squads (p.195):

 

"Section 6. Active List (Other Clubs): If a player on the Practice Squad of one club (Club A) signs an NFL Player Contract with another club (Club B), (1) the player shall receive three weeks salary of his NFL Player Contract at the 53-player Active/Inactive List minimum even if he is terminated by Club B prior to earning that amount, and (2) Club B is required to count the player on its 53-player Active/Inactive List for three games (a bye week counts as a game) even if he is terminated, traded, or assigned via waivers to another club or is signed as a free agent to another club’s 53-player roster or another club’s Practice Squad prior to that time."

 

So I'm not sure if this applies only to a NEW team signing a player off of a practice squad or if their current team signs them. HOWEVER, under the 2020 CBA, two practice quad players that are elevated to active rosters are not techniqually signed to active roster contracts, and are only entitled to 1/17th minimum salary for that week's game, and then revert back to the practice squad. So the 2020 CoVID elevations definitely dont apply to the 3-game minimum payment because they never terminate the practice squad contract.

Would love to get some thoughts. What’s the most important player vs. player matchup this week in our game against the Cardinals?

 

Here is a low key match-up to watch:

 

Haason Reddick vs. Dion Dawkins (or whatever Tackle)

 

Reddick leads the team with 5 sacks and 9.5 TFLs. He has played over 90% of defensive snaps over the last two games. I'm interested to see this match-up because I believe is Allen is afforded the time in the pocket, as he was given the first half of the Seahawks games, he will torch them. 

 

Buddha vs. the world is another:

 

How will they deploy him vs our offense. I imagine he'll be down near the LOS a lot. Can Allen and co. maneuver the protection to account for him without isolating him rushing the passer against the likes on Knox (see Knox v. Adams last week).

I heard Eric Wood talk about the pressure packages we brought against Seattle, and how it’s difficult to do that against tempo.  
 

Arizona runs tempo as much as anyone.  
 

Given our defense FINALLY looked like the defense we were expecting this year, it will be interesting to see how they counter Arizona’s offense.  
 

One thing they seem to always do, is run breakneck tempo after a big play.

Ugh Ugh Ugh on Tre White.  Did he say anything more about what the injury is?  (I wouldn't expect it).

 

Also did he say anything about Harrison Phillips?


Tre has an ankle injury. Didn’t seem like it was serious at the time. 
 

I wouldn’t worry just yet since it’s only Wednesday and McD gives players who are dealing with injuries Wednesdays off.
