Any player that does not make a team can be scouted and offered by the AAF. My understanding is if a player signs with the AAF there is an “NFL outs” clause, meaning if the player gets “called up” by any NFL team, they are welcome to accept it and leave the AAF. Because of this teams are making moves for players so that they hold exclusive rights to them. So this could be posturing due to that.futures contracts just mean the guy has agreed to come to our camp next year.
When your cut and put on PS you no longer have your 4 year contract and get a new PS contract. So after each year the PS players are basically free agents and can sign where ever they want.
