The standard player contract isn't entirely clear, but it suggests that a player under contract has to show up for at least half the season (eight games) in order to avoid having his contract tolled. (The contract talks about tolling to the nearest full season.)
Another interpretation suggests that a player must report by Week 13 (30 days before the end of the season, after with the Commissioner cannot reinstate him).
There is no reasonable argument for Week 10.
