Before the first roster cutdown, players have to clear waivers before they can go to IR. This is to prevent IR stashing. We havent cutdown yet, so Lyerla is exposed to waivers.

from Green Bay Press Gazette:
And just in case you were wondering, Eddie Lacy also still eligible.It provides a safety net for four former undrafted free agents – safety Chris Banjo (16 games), linebacker Andy Mulumba (14 games), tight end Jake Stoneburner (nine games) and offensive lineman Lane Taylor (10 games) – who wouldn't have been eligible otherwise.
Bud Adams told me the franchise he admired the most was the Kansas City Chiefs. Then he asked for more hookers and blow.
Wow! Its been a long time...woodchuck still around! HH still here? OK.
The writing is on the wall for Peri. All the bitching about Worthy being a failure, but Peri is an even bigger bust. At least we might get a pick back for Worthy. We need the last two drafts to be as good as 2012 was bad. I still think he will make the roster this year, but no way does his option get picked up, and will be looking for work.
Fire Murphy, Gute, MLF, Barry, Senavich, etc!
What are Tyler's credentials? Perhaps scout, coach or did he play the postion? Perhaps he is just whistling in the wind.

The official #NFL transaction wire is out for today, and #Packers TE Colt Lyerla did pass through unclaimed. He reverts to injured reserve.
Patriots didn't bite. Clear for a placement on IR. His agent seems on board the idea as well.

JSO has a story with the headline Packers Avoid Injury Bug.
Friday could get ugly. Just park the ambulance on the sidelines.

He has cleared waivers and is still a Packer. I suppose it won't help him to be on IR becaue he can't practice but he will still be around for meetings and can observe practices. Now that I've thought about it it kinda says a lot that we cut him the way we did. If we didn't think he had anything worth developing I wonder if we would have just cut him outright.
Good for the team, good for Colt. Since there was no way for him to make an impression/impact for another team due to his injury, and roster reductions coming, it was unlikely that a team was going to commit a valuable roster spot for him. Let him season. With some good fortune, he'll grow up a bit, get some mentoring and come in next year with an eye on not only a roster spot, but impact to the team.

I doubt we IR him for the year. I think we reach a settlement and then put him on the practice squad when he is healthy. Just my 2 cents worth.
I don't hold Grudges. It's counterproductive.
Not sure if this has been posted, but here's a photo of the play that caused Lyerla's injury.

If that guy ever gets his head screwed on straight he could be something.
Sorry Bobble, it is IR for Lyerla:

Is he trying to do some Matrix style kick while gaining a first down?
All hail the Ruler of the Meadow!
