Does this mean we get to keep one more guy on the roster for the first four weeks?

@"Jor-El" said:@"Norseman" said:Good points. That said, he has two more years on his rookie contract making well under $1M per year, so if we cut him we have to pay somebody else, possibly at a higher amount. A lot of these PED suspensions are due to supplements, etc. that while not really juicing performance still don't pass the NFL's requirements.Does this mean we get to keep one more guy on the roster for the first four weeks?

I didn't think he had the speed to play MLB, so I figured he had reached his limit as a ST'r.
