Non-active Players on Game Day?

[K-Dog]

Okay, you have 53 players on the team, I am not suite sure how many are active roster for game day but I know its not 53.

My question is, those non active game day players and even those on the practice squad, do they get seats to the game ? Do they watch from the coaches box ? Or are they like many of us and watch from home ?

They're on the sidelines dressed in street clothes with the rest of the team.

Only 45 of the 53 guys on the roster can be active. All 53 attend the game. Not so sure about the practice squad players attending, but I believe they do not attend the games on the sidelines.

Practice squad guys are there as well, home and away.

Also - the rule was changed to 46 active players before the season.

I'm pretty sure they aren't required to, but most show up. Ryan McBean and Emanuel Cook, for example, haven't been there because of the severity of their injuries. I know Streeter shows up every week.

Hmmmm it really doesnt look like there is that many people there on the sideline.

I bet they're there. They mix in with the coaches and ball boys as they walk around talking to people.

I mean, we're really talking about 20 other people mixed in with the masses that are already there. They just blend in, but you can normally see them on the sidelines.

The rule needs to be changed, all 53 should be active if healthy, it makes no sense to carry 53 but only be able to use 46.

He sprained his foot and he could play now but we stashed him on IR just to keep him.
