2023 In-Season Roster Thread

[Isaac Curtis: The Real #85]

Well, this should make people happy, Tanner Hudson has been signed to the active roster from the Practice Squad! The newly vacated PS spot has been filled by old friend, LB Clay Johnston.

No word on activating Jones, who probably looks to be out another week. Which will give the staff a week to decide who gets cut when he is activated. My money would be on LB Devin Harper (no dead cap) or TE Wilcox or DT/NT Tufele. Any would likely land on the PS if they clear waivers, necessitating a release there.
