Per Twitter: Xavier Nixon Signed Off Practice Squad By Colts

Some may not think this is thread-worthy, but many will.

Young promising guy, we obviously didn't want to activate him in order to keep him. Interesting, to say the least.

was in another thread and Nixon's name came up so I thought I'd google him and see how he was progressing with the Colts.  Looks like they just released him and placed him on their practice squad.  Any chance we look to get him back?  And that doesn't really seem too fair, they sign him off our practice squad to their roster, release him then put him on their own practice squad?

If they released him and we were concerned about getting him back, couldn't we have just signed him before they put him on their practice squad?

We'd have to do the same. You can't go practice squad to practice squad. 

 

Hmmmm. Dump Merriweathers lame ass. Add Nixon., Everyones a winner. 

 

Hail.

We don't have to put Nixon on our 53 unless we claim him.

 

If he clears/has cleared waivers, we could simply put him on our practice squad while cutting someone else.

 

I think the limit is 8 weeks on an active roster, so as long as he didn't surpass that in Indy he is still PS eligible.

 

EDIT:  FWIW, I haven't heard anything on Troy Kropog.  I know he had a 70 or so rating on Madden 2010, though lol

I think we'd have to keep him on the 53 for two weeks... maybe four.  I'm not 100% sure.  My FO knowledge suffers during the season :lol:
