Players on IR
When can players on IR come gack and play? It could help if Damion Cook and Daniel Bullocks where healthy. I know they would have to cut someone from the active roster but it would be an upgrade at saftey and on the O-line. Your thoughts?
When you go on IR, you're done for the season. Unless the team and player agree to an injury settlement (a prorated salary for an agreed-upon estimate of injury rehab time), at the end of which the player must sit out six weeks before he can sign with a team. Last year, the Lions did that with Aveion Cason at the end of preseason, releasing him with a four-week injury settlement, then signing him back in Week 10.
But in both cases, those guys aren't available. Neither one would've been an upgrade, though. Bullocks was behind both Manuel and Pearson on the offseason depth chart.
