Re: IR Status Clarification
Here's the background on the NFL's changes to injury reporting and how MFL has adjusted:

As you may be aware, the NFL injury report has been changed for the 2007 season. In previous years the NFL has issued an official injury report on both Wednesday and Friday evenings with the familiar Out/Doubtful/Questionable/Probable categories. This year, the report that will be issued on Friday night will still use those same categories, but now, the Wednesday night report will instead have these categories:
- Out (Definitely will not play)
- Did not participate in practice
- Limited participation in practice
- Full participation in practice
Since this new system still has four "buckets" just like the old system, and we know many customers have come to rely on the Wednesday injury report for waiver and IR moves, we've decided to translate the above designations into the familiar Out/Doubtful/Probable/Questionable categories, like this:
- Out (Definitely will not play) = Out
- Did not participate in practice = Doubtful
- Limited participation in practice = Questionable
- Full participation in practice = Probable

- Essentially, the new reporting structure is supposed to prevent the sand bagging that many teams do with injury reporting by more accurately reflecting on the players status based on practice participation.
