can an inactive player play if one of the other players is injured? Or can he not play in that game at all.
 
Only an inactive QB can play & that's if the other two QBs get hurt. Though if an inactive QB plays the first stringer can't be put back in the game later.
 
thanks. I just dont understand why though they have a rule like this. Every player on the roster should be able to play. I mean 53 players is not very much considering how brutal football is.

the rule allows to dress out 54 men

Interesting, probably a rarity, but never heard that one.
