Great feedback.
There is no salary cap on TS players. But there is a contract years cap! So if a TS player goes to the IR (which is how the rules as they're written now seem to allow), the TS squad will have one extra cap year.

So, to give "meat & bones" to Mike's scenario, let's take my team.
Colt Brennan is on the TS squad. His contract is 4/187. My TS contract years are maxed out at 20. If I move Colt to IR... a slot in my TS opens up. I also receive one temporary contract year. So I could move an active player who's TS eligible back down to the TS, as long as the salary tax is added (25cbs/week active) AND as long as I don't go over my 20+1 contract years for the TS.

As my team stands now, I do have a few players who are eligible, but none who have only one contract year left (Steve Smith has 2... ugh!).

So... unless I traded for a TS eligible player, it looks like my squad can't use this option right now.

RIGHT?
