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?

I thought Jim O. stated in his thread that once a player practices, they have to go on the 53 man roster immediately.
