Byron Jones placed on PUP list

Even if he can’t go by week 1, by all accounts he is close. No way they don’t bump him to the active roster.

If he isn’t removed off the list by 4pm Tuesday he’ll miss the first month of the season.

i'm not sure about that. people on the "reserve/PUP" list have to miss the time, but he is on "active/PUP."

Active/PUP list: Players are placed on this list during training camp and count toward a team's 90-man roster. Players can be removed from the list at any time during camp, but can't be placed back on the list. Players on this list as of final roster cutdowns must be placed on the Reserve/PUP, released, traded or counted against the 53-man roster.

i think this means that as long as he counts against the 53, he can stay on active/PUP and be activated any time?

either way, i hope they just remove him from the pup tomorrow.

Does this mean Igbinoghene is kept for depth? Really hope Igbinoghene doesn’t have to play significant snaps this season. Especially against Buffalo

iggy stays as a pet project.

needham starts, and some veteran combo will man the other CB spots before iggy ever gets in the game (i hope).

unless it's during a blowout and everyone gets to play!
 
here's the rules if they move him from active pup to reserve pup tomorrow:

Reserve/PUP list: Teams must decide by the 53-man roster cutdown deadline (Aug. 30 this season) whether to place a player on this list. Players placed on this list at that time must miss at least the team's first four games -- down from six in seasons prior to 2022. Unlike in the past, players can be activated immediately after such time has elapsed. Any player who is designated Reserve/PUP on or after rosters are reduced to 80 (Aug. 23 this season) will also be subject to the same four-game absence.
 
If Iggy makes the team again this year we have to face the fact that the front office is more concerned with their ego than fielding the best team possible. If we keep 3 QBs and Iggy we are losing 2 positions that have no reasonable shot of getting on the field all year. If we keep Iggy and 3 QBs we will lose someone like Kellen Diesch. Add another wasted spot on Clayton Fed@%$%& and it starts to look like we aren't even trying.

$5.5 million in dead cap if we cut him looks like we are trying and it doesn't make financial sense to cut him.
 
So if he goes on reserve/PUP then doesn't cou t toward 53 until activated, thus Kohou can stay for 4 games while Byron gets healthy. Is that right?
