If the team places someone on IR today, they are done for the season. As far as I can tell there isn't anyone with season-ending injuries so that move shouldn't be made.  For someone to be placed on IR and return during the season, they have to make today's roster.  Look for CTB to make the team today and move to IR tomorrow.  Khalid Kareem and Mitch Wilcox are also potential IR moves.  We could see 1 or more Vets cut today in order to make these moves.  The Vets don't have to go through waivers so are cut with the knowledge they are coming back.

I starting to think that Huber will make the 53 simply because I cannot imagine they would treat such a long-tenured member of the Bengals the same as rookies and announce his cut at 4pm, rather than on Sunday or Monday so he can look for another team. We shall see.
