Eligibility

The NFL and NFLPA agreed to some practice squads eligibility changes.

First, a player must have a minimum of six games – up from the current three games – on a Practice Squad in order for that season to count as one of the player’s three permissible seasons of Practice Squad service.

Second, 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. Absent this exception, a player who has earned one or more accrued seasons would not be eligible for a Practice Squad unless the player spent fewer than nine games on a club’s 46-player active list in each of his accrued seasons.

All other practice squad rules under Article 33 of the 2011 Collective Bargaining Agreement will remain in effect during the 2014 and 2015 seasons.

(Article 33: The Practice Squad shall consist of the following players, provided that they have not served more than two previous seasons on a Practice Squad: (i) players who do not have an Accrued Season of NFL experience; and (ii) free agent players who were on the Active List for fewer than nine regular season games during their only Accrued Season(s). An otherwise eligible player may be a Practice Squad player for a third season only if the Club by which he is employed that season has at least 53 players on its Active/Inactive List during the entire period of his employment.)

Can we please not merge these. The other ones have shitty thread titles. I missed the practice squad signings yesterday, because the main thread for it was titled "Practice squad eligible to be signed."

That's just a piece of shit thread title. "Bears Practice Squad Signings" would have been perfect. "Practice squad eligible to be signed" gives you no indication that it's the thread in which the actual signings are being reported. According to the title, that thread should be a list of players who were cut who are also eligible to be signed to the practice squad. Rawdawg should be ashamed of himself for that one. Completely ashamed.

2014 NFL Practice Squad Rules

Edited to shake tiny fist at OnemanWolfpack.

Yeah, I didn't like the angle that thread took and nor the outpouring of dislike and bemoaning the fact people can't find what they are looking for in threads. That's more than enough for me. I'll just make sure that people follow that same fucking path.

Not football-related. You've earned two demerits.

3 CBs and no Safeties. Interesting.
Glad to see a couple DTs there. We're a little too thin there for my liking. I wonder if either of these guys can actually play.
No OT ... I guess Ola and Leno have won the staff over for now.

Anyone have any information on Roy Philon, Rashad Ross, or Terrance Mitchell? They are all new to the team right?

Did Chris Williams catch on somewhere else?
