Saw this posted

on a Miami Herald Blog: 

"I wonder if they kept Dotson for his potential as well as the worry that somebody would have picked him up making us unable to stash him on practice squad.

I'll say this again, players 46-61 on our roster are all practice squad players since we can only dress 45 on game day so to me all that really matters is our top 45."

I believe Dotson will end up on the practice Squad once we get in a few more players.  Also, I was unaware of the rules - teams are allowed to only dress 45 players for a game?  Whenever I check the injury reports, a lot of teams have sometimes one or two players out.  That means players from 46-51 can't play?  Someone please explain.  Thank you.

8 players are listed as "inactive" for each game.

If you’ve ever been around here on a Sunday during the regular season, you’ll notice that I post the “inactives” for our games.

Yes, I look often

and everyday as a matter of fact. I honestly did not make the connection. O.K. Thank you for the knowledge. It’s much appreciated. Thank you.
