Jerrick Reed Poached by Titans

Feel bad for Reed having to go to that dumpster in Tennessee but if he does get to play often on the active roster, at least he'll get a healthy paycheck out of it.

Good question. I don't believe they have a say in it, but because of the $$$ I don't think I've ever heard of a player wanting to avoid being poached. As a practice squad player you're fighting for a chance to earn a real game check, so getting poached is a promotion

Yeah , he'll probably see a lot more snaps in Tennessee .

I wish him well.

Is it fact that any player on a practice squad can be picked up by another team at any time?

If so, that’s something I didn’t know.
Not sure how I didn’t know after all these years.

From my understanding, I think each week a team can also "protect" 4 players on their practice squad from being poached. I think I overheard that the other day but not sure if true.

I don’t know how the process works technically.

I wonder how much time is available, and if you could move a scrub up from practice squad, waive him etc.

Maybe release a guy from practice while protecting a guy like Reed?

Anyone know the technical details?

Poached players only go to the 53 and must be paid for three games, after which they can be waived and if not picked up can go to anyone’s ps.

Thanks

Even though the question was already addressed.

Keep on keepin’ on.
