huh?
no practice report is due until today or tomorrow, and he's just discussing his thoughts the matter with the press?
NFL
The National Football League (NFL) has a "
Personnel (Injury) Report Policy" that explains what each team must comply with week-to-week during the season.
This report is made up of three sections:
- Practice report
- Game status report
- In-game injury report
With the practice report, all players who have reportable injuries must be listed here, even if the player takes all the reps in practice, and even if the team is certain that he will play in the upcoming game.
A team has to provide its full practice report the three previous days before a game no later than 4 p.m. EST. So, if a team is playing on Thursday, they must provide this report on Monday, Tuesday and Wednesday.
The only time teams must provide it earlier than the three previous days is for Saturday games. In this situation, the practice report must be provided on Tuesday, Wednesday and Thursday.
The players' status on the practice report must fall under one of three categories:
- Did not participate
- Limited participation
- Full participation
