Robert Lester IS practice squad eligible?

[Jeremy Igo]

so, if we sign Lester to the PS maybe we do the same for King

King was always eligible. I think they will

More dreadlocks is always a good thing.

I'm told WR Tavarres King will not be returning to #Panthers' practice squad. Could mean he was claimed. Will update.

I was wrong. I wasn't aware that this year the NFL is allowing two spots be players with less than two seasons accrued.

Each club will be permitted to sign a maximum of two Practice Squad players who have earned no more than two accrued seasons of free agency credit.

 

Yes!

Robert Lester is practice squad eligible this year due to the 2014-2015 PS rule changes. 2 players now allowed with 2 years experience.

Jeremy, you may not know, but do you think the Panthers still would've cut Lester if he weren't practice squad eligible?

I don't think so.

 

 

BTW, Lester lost his roster spot to a rookie who missed all of camp and preseason.

 

 

ouch

Thanks. So is Boston not getting IR'd it seems? Boston certainly has more athleticism and upside but Lester I think is much smarter.

Ha freaking ha to all of the people that were so sassy saying he wasn't eligible.

Doesn't look like it.

He might be inactive for at least the first several games though.

Last year he would not have been. I didn't realize this year in addition to the two extra spots they increased the eligibility playing time.

Also, JJ tried explaining it to me on the podcast, but that was after a full growler. It is what it is.

Sorry if you thought that post was about you. I asked the question if he was eligible and got bombarded with sass. I asked because I had seen it on twitter two or three days ago.
