If placed on IR before the 53 man roster is set, then they are on IR all season with no chance of coming back.
But to qualify to be an 'IR designated to return' player, he has to be on the 53 man roster at start of season. Once he is on the 53 roster, he would be placed on IR, with the chance to return after 8 weeks. Then they can go to practice squad or free agency to replace him while on he is on IR. Also teams can now use two players for this.
