I think we have one more designation to return available and Ginn is eligible after this week I think.

Each team gets two designations now. The rules were changed prior to last season. They also don't have to designate which players they want to use the "return" on until it is time to activate. Originally the single player had to be designated at the time they were placed on IR.

Yeah, also read a tweet from Nick Underhill at the New Orleans Advocate who confirmed what AG was correct about as well...

Hadn't realized we get two back now (might as well not have a limit, imo)...

I agree totally. The greater ability to rehab injuries and the tighter constraints over the designations makes the old rules obsolete. The IR rules were put in place to avoid "hiding" players for return the same season. That is much harder to get away with in today's atmosphere.

Let's make the new rule happen, SP, now that you're on the committee!

But now it begs the question... Ted Ginn or Josh LeRibeus?

Tre'Quan Smith was drafted to be the future, replacement for Ginn...

Now, is he injured and it's limiting his ability at the present, or...

Tre'Quan is gonna need more time to aclimate, adjust to the offense?

If it's injury, then you roll with Smith, let him regain his health and bring back O-Line depth...

The o was clicking last season late with ginn I were hoping he could get pressure of Thomas if could return but with online sporadic play we could use some fresh legs
