Do you have proof to confirm that?
From this link, it says, "If a player is placed on IR, they will still count toward the salary cap."

Also this link, which says, "When a player goes on injured reserve, his full salary cap figure counts against his team’s salary cap unless otherwise specified in the player’s contract."

You are right, they just dont count against the 53 roster. But we still can't cut him until he is healthy or settlement reached.
