No. A player cannot be signed from one practice squad to another. A practice squad player from one squad can be signed to the ACTIVE roster of another squad easily, but they must remain on the new team's active roster (as long as they're healthy) for the remainder of the season


Can a player on an nfl practice squad be moved up to the regular roster anytime in regular season should there be a spot due to an injury leaving a player out for the remainder of the season?

Yes. The player's current team can promote him or another team can sign him to a contract. Practice squad members are considered free agents therefore, should another team sign one of the practice squad members, no compensation is given to the player's former team. Should another team sign a practice squad player, the player must be placed on his new team's 53 man roster for a minimum of three weeks. The 2008 season salary for practice squad members is $5,200 per week.

In the national football league what does practice squad deletion mean?

In the NFL, the teams are allowed to have 53 players on their roster. Of these 53 players, 45 are allowed to dress for a game. The players on the roster that don't dress for a game are considered to be on the 'practice squad'. Should a team decide to cut one of those players on the practice squad, it is called a 'practice squad deletion'. In the same vain, if a team picks up a player and adds him to the practice squad it is called a 'practice squad addition'.

What are the requirements to be placed on the practice squad?

Basically, 53 players make a football squad in the NFL. Of those 53, 45 dress to play for a game. The others are considered the 'practice squad'. There are no real requirements to be on the practice squad other than the coaching staff believes that you are the 46th-53rd best player on the team. The practice squad is very important since if someone on the 45 man active roster gets hurt, the first place a team will look to replace the injured player is the practice squad.The above is incorrect. The practice squad is an additional group of 8 players in addition to the regular roster of 53. For each game, 8 of the 53 players are designated as "inactive" for the game, but that is separate from the practice squad.


If a NFL practice squad player has been on the squad for 2 years and is claimed by another team and put on their main roster what is his minimum league salary?

The players on a teams Practice Squad do not accrue Time of Service while on the Practice Squad. from the NFL CBA Article XVIII, Section 1, Paragraph (a). " a player shall receive one Accrued Season for each season during which he was on, or should have been on, full pay status for a total of six or more regular season games, but which, irrespective of the player's pay status, shall not include games for which the player was on: (i) the Exempt Commissioner Permission List, (ii) the Reserve PUP List as a result of a nonfootball injury, or (iii) a Club's Practice or Development Squad. " NFL players with two or more accrued seasons are not elligible for the practice squad. Therefore, any player signing with a team would only be elligible for the NFL minimum salary. The current minimum salary is $285,000 (as of 2007). So if the Practice Squad Player is signed to an active roster, they are paid a minimum of the rookie minimum for the full season or on a pro-rated basis at the minimum salary level. Practice-squad players are "free agents" and can be signed by any team at any time. Hope this answers your question
