NOpe, stashing him on IR is preventing other teams from signing him to their PS. We needed the roster spot, aside from cutting some one else, this was the best way to both retain the player and clear a roster spot.

Exactly. He most likely wasn't going to be seeing the field much anyways. Tho I do hate the loss of development on STs for us.

Well, he at least had a headache, didn't he?

Um yes a concussion is the reason he is going on I.R

He was going through concussion protocol. How severe it was hasn't been released as of yet. Also I seem to recall he may have had a concussion in college so that may have played in a bit. Don't know that for sure tho.

I didnt think Shark was saying nope to the existence of a concussion. It was more to why they IRd him so early.

Just joking with shark, Cali. I'm sure the Redskins would never abuse the IR rules!

Yes, the concussion is the reason he is going on IR. But lets also not rule out that it was also a way to maintain him and gain the roster spot needed. We couldnt release him and resign him because he is currently injured. If we released him with an injury settlement, we couldnt sign him back for six weeks. And had we released him, there is no guarantee another team would not have signed him. So it was more than just the injury he had that determined he go to IR. Because also if he were released with an injury settlement, he would not be eligable for our practice squad.
