Meh. Tons of potential but I was getting annoyed seeing his name on the "did not participate in practice" list. Wonder if Lorig is next.

Agree on Butler, disagree on Lorig.
Lorig might go PUP and miss 6 games, with Johnson or Jones filling in. Butler had participated in one walk through so far

Its strange how he's only missed one game in 4 years, comes here and cannot walk into the facility without getting hurt

Players can't go on PUP unless they were designated PUP at the start of camp. If they practice one day, they are no longer eligible for the PUP list.

Butler ended last season on IR not PUP.

A player can not remain on PUP for an entire season. A player on the Physically Unable to Perform list must be either activated, waived, or IRed by Week 9. Butler was IRed when it became clear he would not be able to return anytime during the 2013 season.

Right. I guess I meant the 6 week IR.
I think we can only designate one guy, though, and Stills and Lorig are our candidates.
