2020 Injured Reserve Tracker

INJURED RESERVE RULE (2017 Implemented)
Players must meet any of the official NFL IR standards to be placed in IR status. The minimum term on IR status will be 4 weeks, then player must be IR eligible and it will extend an additional 2 weeks, and will continue to need to be eligible every 2 weeks or player must be activated. A player may be activated at the end of any IR period he has started. If a non-eligible player is not activated within 1 week of no longer meeting IR eligible status and a 4 or 2 week period has expired, the player will be considered cut and exposed to waivers and standard cap penalties. For shorthand this is a 4x2x2 type system.

Retroactive IR allows teams to retroactively place a player on IR 1 or 2 weeks prior IF:

the Player was DOUBTFUL or OUT on final injury report(s) & INACTIVE for the week(s) by their NFL team in the preceding week(s)
and
the Player was not started by their Frenzy team in the preceding week(s)
and
The team placing a player on retroactive IR must provide the necessary link(s) from MFL linked article(s) and/or Injury Reports at the time the player is placed on retroactive IR. Failure to submit proof of eligibility in the post where the player is retroactively placed on IR will void the move and the player will not be eligible for retroactive IR until the following week at the earliest.

An example of how this system would work:

SCENARIO 1 - Player A has an injury and is listed OUT in the final injury report and is INACTIVE week 4 for his NFL team. Week 5 this player is again listed as doubtful, and ends up INACTIVE again. Week 6 player is again doubtful on the NFL injury report.... Team A has the option to place Player A on IR with their 4 week minimum IR stay backdated to week 4 and extending to week 8 before the 2 week renewals come in. This shortens the remaining IR term to 2 weeks for this player, though the player will have missed at least 4 weeks playing time for their Frenzy team.

SCENARIO 2 - Player A has an injury and is listed OUT in the final injury report INACTIVE week 7 for his NFL team. Week 8 this player is again listed as OUT on the NFL injury report.... Team A has the option to place Player A on IR with their 4 week minimum IR stay backdated to week 7 and extending to week 11 before the 2 week renewals come in. This shortens the remaining IR term to 3 weeks for this player, though the player will have missed at least 4 weeks playing time for their Frenzy team.
***Please be sure to attach documentation for any retroactive IR moves***

PASSED for 2020: Covid-IR (CovIR) with the criteria below:
Any player listed as Reserve-Covid is eligible up until the point they're taken off the list by their NFL team

An unlimited number of players will be allowed on this list, if your team loses a player to the NFL's Reserve-Covid list they automatically move to Frenzy/SACD's Covid-IR.

Once on Covid-IR the entire players contract doesn't count against the cap until the moment they're taken off the Covid-IR list

1 contract year is forgiven for players placed on Covid-IR
UFA's picked up as 1 year replacements at or below the Covid-IR players salary will be automatically cut without penalty the moment the NFL team removes the player off the NFL's Reserve-Covid list. Basically, pickup any UFA at or below the Covid players salary for a 1 year deal and you will not be penalized for the replacements cut when the Covid player is removed off the list by their NFL team
Teams will not receive cap hit relief on replacement UFA's if they either assign a replacement for multiple years OR bid above the Covid players salary.
NOTE - for players in Active Bidding, upon acquisition you must designate a player as a Covid-replacement for X player for the Covid IR rules to apply. If the player is signed to a 1 year contract at a salary at or below the Covid-IR player, that would mean no cap hit and immediate release when the Covid-IR player returns. If you assign a UFA multiple years or a contract above the Covid-IR player's contract, they would NOT be eligible for any salary cap relief, and teams could cut any other player as normal within 24 hours (at the normal cap hit penalty) to make room for the returning player.
