White to IR

[La Costa Boy]

Maybe they were hoping it would heal up and they were giving him every opportunity before giving up on this season?

i dont think they are hiding anything. I dont think they are stupid enough to telegraph their moves just to appease the fans...the goal is to win games.

Bummer for White...we could use him

There you go trying to ruin a naysayers right to bitch, bitch, bitch........

Sure the goal is to win games. But its not like White is some elite superstar that teams have to game plan for. I also wonder if replacing him with a CB means someone else in the secondary is hurting and they are hiding that as well.

Maybe. However, Pullard was re-signed so the LB position was covered.

It like thue could bring him back from IR in week 17. I guess we will need to see if he has to have another surgery? With the timing, it seems like the team is keeping that option open.

Does the NFL allow retro designations for IR like MLB does?

You don't have to designate, the player just has to be on IR for a minimum for 8 weeks

Sorry, I wasn't clear - what I meant to ask (and I think I is no) is that since he didn't play the previous 4 games, could they count those 4 weeks as IR time (like MLB does). But I don't think so.
