Colin Jones' miraculous overnight recovery from seemingly season ending groin injury


LUUUUUKE

Recommended Posts

Apparently has to see a specialist. This isn't good!  What have we done to upset the football Gods?

FUG MAN! <---yes I'm yelling

 

STs will take a hit, and I was hoping that he would possibly start at Safety.

May go to PUP allowing for Marlowe to make the roster as the 4th safety.

There's no PUP anymore.  That's only for players who can't practice in Training Camp.  Now it's IR - out for the season, or IR with designation to return.  Out for 6 weeks.  But you can only do that with one player per season.  (which really bothers me. really wish NFL would increase that to at least 3 players per season).

Or, he stays on the 53 but isn't activated any time soon.  It's a tough situation.

There is a regular season PUP but I'd have to look up the rules.

Yes there is. PUP starts in TC and the player can be taken off of it anytime during camp, but if they aren't taken off when the regular season starts, they are ineligible for 6 games while on the PUP list. IR (designated to return) is different. 6 weeks after being placed on the list if cleared, a player can practice with the team but isn't eligible to play until 8 weeks after they are placed on it.

It's Wikipedia, so it may not be 100% vouched for, but here's an overview of the PUP which makes me think that PUP is now only an option for Presley

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Physically_unable_to_perform

Preseason PUP

A player who, as a result of football-related injuries, is unable to take part in training camp practices may be assigned to the preseason PUP list. Players can be moved off the PUP list to the active roster at any time, even after one practice. A player cannot be placed on the PUP list, however, once he has taken the field for a practice, even if only for a few minutes.

Regular-season PUP

A player who finishes the preseason still on the PUP list can then be placed on the regular-season PUP list. Such players must sit out the first six games their team plays. At that point, teams have a five-week window in which to allow the player to begin practicing; from the day the player begins practicing, teams have an additional 21-day window in which to decide whether to activate the player to the 53-man roster. If either of those deadlines pass, the player must remain on the PUP list for the remainder of the season.[1]
