what happened to the rule that your third quarterback could be inactive, but if the other two guys went down he could enter the game as emergency QB?
did they do away with that?
The owners and players have agreed to expand game day rosters from 45 to 46 active players. The No. 3 quarterback will no longer be an “emergency” inactive player. In other words, a team can insert its third-string quarterback for a short period at any point in the game, then take him out and put the starter back in.Jul 22, 2011
