The NFL’s 53-man roster deadline has pa sed, eliminating 1,184 roster spots acro s the league and creating more clarity about how each team’s depth Rollie Fingers Jersey will stack up in 2023.It also provided insight on which players will and will not be ready for the start of the 2023 NFL season.Several players remained on the PUP list as the NFL’s 4 p.m. ET roster cut deadline pa sed on Aug. 29. Each player still on the PUP list will now have to mi s the first four games of the season as most recover from serious injuries suffered last season.MORE: But what exactly is the PUP list? Here’s what to know about where it falls among the NFL’s various injury lists and what differentiates it from IR.The PUP list in the NFL is a designation reserved for players who are physically unable to perform their football-related duties because of injuries suffered while playing football. These players are allowed to participate in team activities but are not allowed to practice.There are two different subsets of the PUP list. One is the Active/PUP list, which is used during training camp when NFL rosters are at a 90-man limit. Though unable to practice, they count toward a team’s 90-man roster limit and can be activated from the list at any time. Once they are removed from the list, however, they cannot be placed back on it.The more notable list is the Reserve/PUP list, which takes effect when rosters are cut to 53. If a team chooses not to remove a player from the Active/PUP list before the 4 p.m. ET roster cut deadline, he is then transferred to Reserve/PUP. That requires the player to mi s a minimum of four games; prior to the 2022 season, players on the PUP list to start the regular season had to mi s at least six games.The acronym “PUP” stands for “Physically Unable to Perform” in the NFL. It is a designation given to players during training camp who are unable to practice or see the field because of injuries suffered while playing football.The PUP list and injured reserve (IR) are both tools that allow teams to keep injured players on their teams without having them count toward the club’s 53-man roster, but the operating procedures for each are different.The key difference is about the timing of when a player is placed on each list. For a player to land on the PUP list, they must be designated as physically unable to perform upon their arrival at training camp. And once activated from the list, they cannot be placed on it again.The rules Brad Hand Jersey with IR are a bit stricter during the offseason but more lenient in-season. If aplayer lands on IR during training camp, they are ineligible to return to the team’s active roster. They must either remain on IR for the rest of the season or they can reach an injury settlement with the club and attempt to play elsewhere.The reason for that? The NFL doesn’t want teams to use IR to circumvent waivers Rickey Henderson Jersey and stash players. That would likely happen if teams were able to activate players placed on IR before that deadline pa sed.Once the 53-man roster deadline pa ses, NFL teams can place any player on IR and have the option to activate them from the list after four games. There is no limit to how many players can be placed on IR, but each club can designate up to eight players to return. Players can be placed on IR and activated twice with the “designated for return” tag; however, if a player does return twice, both his returns count toward the eight-designation limit.So, to recap, the PUP designation must come during training camp but can carry over into the regular season. The IR designation can be used at any time, but only those who make it past the 53-man roster deadline will be eligible to return from the list.MORE: Yes, players on the NFL’s PUP list are paid their entire base salary, per . The contract of the player on that list will not toll roll over to the next season “unle s he is in the last year of his deal and he is both not able to perform football services as of the sixth regular season gameis not activated during that regular season or postseason.”In other words, so long as a player is eventually activated from the PUP list, he will be credited for playing during the season. This will be of particular importance to Jonathan Taylor, one of the players on the PUP list to start the 2023 NFL season.Below is a run-down of the notable players who have been placed on the PUP list to start the 2023 NFL season.Jonathan Taylor, ColtsTaylor began Colts training camp on the PUP list while dealing with ankle and back injuries. He also was in the midst of a feud with the team about his contract status and demanded a trade. Indianapolis wasn’t able to trade him before the 53-man roster deadline, so Taylor who has largely been working away from the team while rehabbing his Tyson Ross Jersey injuries will mi s at least the first four games of the season.Kyler Murray, CardinalsWhile Taylor staying on the PUP list was a surprise, Murray remaining there was not. The Cardinals quarterback suffered a torn ACL in Week 15 of the 2022 NFL season and it was expected that he would not be ready for the start of the 2023 season. It will be interesting to see if he plays at all in 2023, as Arizona may not have any incentive to rush him back into action.MORE: Von Miller, BillsMiller is another player recovering from a torn ACL, though his happened earlier than Murray’s. He tore his on Thanksgiving against the Lions, and there was some hope that he could play in Week 1. The Bills are choosing to play it safe with him but he could be ready to play as soon as he’s eligible to return in Week 5.La’el Collins, BengalsCollins tore his ACL, MCL and PCL in the Bengals’ Week 16 victory over the Patriots. He faced a long road to recovery, so it isn’t a surprise to see him on the PUP list to start the 2023 NFL season. It was expected that he Eric Hosmer Jersey would challenge Jonah Williams to serve as the team’s starting right tackle, but instead, he will have to hope to return later in the season as Cincinnati’s swing tackle behind Williams and Orlando Brown Jr.Eric Stokes, PackersStokes has turned into a quality corner acro s from Jaire Alexander but he will not be ready to start the 2023 season after he suffered a Lisfranc injury against the Lions in November. Stokes has logged 81 tackles, 14 pa s defenses and an interception in 25 career games, but Green Bay will have to turn to Rasul Douglas to help adequately replace him.Austin Corbett, PanthersCorbett tore his ACL during the 2022 NFL season. Sensing a pattern here? Indeed, players who suffer serious knee injuries late in the season tend not to be able to return to action at the start of the next season. That will create a hole for the Panthers at right guard, which rookie fourth-round pick Chandler Zavala will hope to fill.
