machine gun kelly Posted August 29, 2023 Share Posted August 29, 2023 This is unexpected if they kept him on the 53 until tomorrow, they could’ve in two days placed on IR and only out for four weeks. They may be moving on from him and are looking to add a depth or development guy on the PS. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's looking like he will eventually get an injury settlement and cut while another QB goes to the PS. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

IR does not mean done for year. There is short term and long term IR. Buffalo will put QB Matt Barkley on injured reserve to begin the season, according to NFL Network’s Tom Pelissero. Barkley suffered an injury to his elbow late in the team’s 27-15 preseason loss to the Pittsburgh Steelers on August 19. It clears the way for Kyle Allen to be the team’s backup quarterback. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Short term requires the guy to have made the final 53 on paper, after which the team IRs him and can sign someone else. IRing him before means he’s out for the season or if given an injury settlement he can sign with another team but not the Bills. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Your premise is only true if he is placed on IR in two days, but today is on the active roster. Sal must have explained this on the morning and extra point shows a dozen times. If they wait it’s as low as four weeks. If done now, it’s the year. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He HAS to make the 53 today, and then in two days can go on IR. People here state it s was reported he was placed on IR. Someone is not being clear. This isn’t to be argumentative, but my statements are factually accurate. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ColoradoBills Posted August 29, 2023 Share Posted August 29, 2023 I'm not a heavy betting man anymore BUT I will bet some good money that Matt Barkley will not be kept on the 53 today, put on IR in the hopes he can come back and go to the PS. No injured player can be cut until they are cleared to play or an injury settlement is agreed to. I just can't see another player being cut to "save" Matt Barkley. Just a general reminder, all salaries are guaranteed to players on the opening day 53-man roster. He sits on IR until he heals and then cut OR he goes along with the injury settlement (most likely).

wettlaufer Posted August 29, 2023 Author Share Posted August 29, 2023 He's listed on the 53 man roster as of the Bills' official release just before 6. So I take it he'll be eligible to return this season (unless there's a settlement). Not informed on these details in general or in this particular situation. Just passing on the news I saw.

DonInBuffalo Posted August 29, 2023 Share Posted August 29, 2023 looking at the roster on the Bills site just now, Barkley is listed in the Injured Reserve section. Reid Ferguson is not listed. Shorter is included in the 53. Apparently tomorrow they will more Shorter to IR and sign Ferguson. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yeah this is the 2nd year they’ve asked Reid to take one for the team to pay the roster games. He’s a good soldier. Im sure Beane calls him into the office. Beane, “hey Reid, ah..”. Fergy, “ yeah, yeah, I got it. Can you at least send me some pizza and wings for this yearly event?” Sure, Reid. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BCAS Baritone Posted August 29, 2023 Share Posted August 29, 2023 So I know he can't play for the Bills this year, but is he still allowed to hang around the building, attend practices, watch film, give advice to Josh - i.e. all the stuff an assistant coach does?

Jerome007 Posted August 30, 2023 Share Posted August 30, 2023 If he can't play, Bean has to find another QB quick. And if he really can't play all year, maybe have him work as assistant QB coach! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
