No. I am saying keep Porter for as long as possible before he counts toward our 53. The only way he has a shot at the 53 is if we have a rash of injuries at LB.
As I understand it a player on PUP has to sit 6 weeks. Then there is a 5 week window where the team has to decide to let him start practicing or place him on IR. Then once he starts practicing the team still has another 3 weeks before he counts toward the 53. So we could keep him in reserve on PUP for up to 14 weeks.
Is that correct?
