I don't understand what you mean by this? Are you referring to replacing Landen Akers by putting him on the "suspended list"?

Exactly, it's not to be used as a ghost roster spot, and if they'd just done the normal transaction (which they could still do, no one's stopping them) this wouldn't have ever been an issue.

I guess I kinda get that. I see the argument that if you have a player unavailable that is not injury-related, they should just make them inactive for that game and not get to fill a roster spot.

San Antonio made some last-second changes before the game.The league announced Wednesday night that the Brahmas had released offensive lineman Derrick Kelly II, signed wide receiver Tavonn Salter and placed fellow receiver Landen Akers on the suspended list after he stepped away from the team for personal reasons.  <<

We were able to ask Phillips and Holtz about the Matt Seybert situation. Here is what they said.
