OK, I have heard the term thrown around, but don't really understand the significance. I know a player who is inactive for a game is not dressing for the game, but what is the significance? In hockey, they call it a healthy scratch.
If you have a 53 man roster, why not dress everyone who is healthy in case someone ahead of them gets hurt. I assume an inactive player can't rush to the dressing room, become active and then play in the game. O' knowledgeable ones, please come forth and grace us with your expertise.
