In Football, What is Injured Reserve? (with picture)

That depends on the terms and conditions of their contract I believe.

Re: Meachem breaking news

Many players also make less money if they are put on the IR list, which is sometimes referred to as the reserve/injured list. Players often agree to contracts that include reduced salaries if they go on IR. Often called split salaries, they usually are between 40 percent and 70 percent of the players' normal salaries. Not all contracts include reduced salaries for players who are put on IR. The Collective Bargaining Agreement between the NFL and the NFL Players Association (NFLPA) also sets minimum amounts for players' split salaries

So how does this Effect the W.Smith and Vilma Cap number i wonder

And i'd almost take that swap TheOak 3 for 1 not a bad trade off plus New Yorkers Additudes Suck

We normally hear about a reduced salary after someone is already on it.

Re: Meachem breaking news

maybe that's there plan with vilma keep him on IR for awhile at a reduced rate then release him when the hit might not be as bad say week 7 or 8

Re: Meachem breaking news

Meachem: 23 TD and 141 receptions. Played 62 games in 4 years as a Saint

Re: Meachem breaking news

Can't say I was surprised Meach came back here; kinda figured it as soon as I heard SD cut him. Some guys just simply do better in certain systems, and Meach knew and played his role here before when his number got called. He's also cheaper this time around, so again this move don't surprise me.

And Chamberlain was brought in from STL for Spags' system...Spags' "Let's-just-have-literally-the-worst-defense-in-history" defensive system ain't here no more, Chamberlain ain't here no more. Good for me.

Re: Meachem breaking news

At least you don't have to worry about Meach chasing the highest bidder. I bet he's the happiest guy in town right now.
