Parker and Jones off PUP today, all on schedule http://miamiherald.typepad.com/dolp...-and-jones-off-pup-today-all-on-schedule.html
That is awesome! As Stitches said, hopefully Parker can get up to speed, and get onto the field in the third preseason game to work out some timing and get used to being back on the field. Then, we're at full strength against Washington in week 1.
Sounds like good news. This doesn't necessarily mean he's going to practice this week, though, does it? Is reg season PUP now off the table? Sounds like he's trying for Washington.
I would think that if the team feels that he's healthy enough to go out and practice now, that the regular season PUP would seem unlikely, barring a setback.
If you're not on the preseason PUP list all through camp, you can't be placed on the regular season PUP. Any participation in camp makes you ineligible for the regular season PUP (or preseason PUP for that matter), even if it were only 5 mins.
Thanks for the clarification! That would mean that, barring further injury, Parker is at worst going to be on the active 53 as a healthy scratch if he's not up to speed. Hopefully he can get enough reps to make it onto the active roster and get onto the field though.
I wouldn't be expecting to see either of them practicing any time soon. I read it is more of an administration move to allow them to participate in team activities, not necessarily practice. They do remain on schedule though to return at least in week one.
