"Obviously it is no surprise that Crabtree won’t be practicing with the 49ers, but the choice to put him on the PUP list is significant. He can now move onto the reserve PUP list come the regular season, which forces him to miss the first six games of the season before a three-week window opens to take the player off the list. There are then three more weeks for him to practice before he must be activated or shut down for the remainder of the season.
It will take some time before we know how Crabtree’s rehab will go, but handling things this way leaves open the 49ers’ spot for a player to be placed on injured reserve with the possibility of returning to the team later in the season. Knowing Crabtree’s general timeline allows them to use the PUP list while keeping open the possibility of another late season return to bolster their roster down the road.
