The NFL is considering amending their IR rule to include a second player to be brought back...
"According to NFL Network's Judy Battista, owners will vote on -- and likely approve -- a proposal to allow two players to come off injured reserve in-season. It makes complete sense. Too often, every year players who suffer non-serious injuries are forced to spend the entirety of the season on I.R. due to roster crunches. The I.R.-return rule forces a player to miss six weeks before practicing and eight weeks before being eligible to return to playing games." --- Rotoworld
Just wanted to bring this to light for those that may have missed it.

I believe the NFL has approved this measure for the upcoming 2017 season.
Should we move forward as well? Do we want to put it to a vote? For 2017 or 2018 implementation?
Give me some thoughts...

Personally I'm somewhat at a loss here. Maybe it's because I've missed so much time over the past season or so. Basically, if I'm understanding right, we have already implemented the old rule, meaning we now have a Thread entitled, "Designated to Return List" or something to that effect?

So what your saying is that we just amend the rule as the NFL just did and continue to follow along? I have no problem with that, and probably is the most logical thing to do.

We will move forward as a league and also allow a second player to return from IR
