2023 Practice Squad

I'm a little puzzled they haven't gotten Ford onto the PS. But then again, so far at least no one else has come knocking on his door.

I am not sure how the new PS rules work, but apparently you can call up guys on game day? If so, that could be really helpful for ST. Someone like Patrick Taylor might play more than Emmanuel Wilson this year, even if the latter has a roster spot and the former is on the PS.

You can call a PS player up to the game day roster, and the return him to the PS the next week 3 times. the 4th time he has to become part of the 53 man roster.

I thought Ford started fast, but tailed off late. I didn't think he played well at all against Seattle.

When you call someone up on game day, do you have to make a corresponding roster cut, or is it just an “extra” guy?

And go Chris Slayton!

Pretty sure it's just an extra guy.

Ford must have really declined, because Slayton didn't really do anything noticeable all summer.

On second thought, Jonathan Ford signed to PS and C James Empey released.

Good. Gotta have that big body backup.

I like the PS call-up rule. If, say, a key ST guy isn’t going to be available, you have options.
