He’s not going to stick - didn’t play a snap in the first preseason game.

Do players on IR get paid?

Do players on IR get paid?

I believe the answer is yes. This article is a little old and the dollar values are probably a bit higher, but I think the info is accurate.

What does it mean when an NFL player is waived/injured?

*NFL players receive 1/17th of their salary each week during the season. So, players on injured reserve receive 1/17th of their salary each week they're on IR during the season.

But players may not receive their full salary while on IR because many non-vested players have split contracts. Players on split contracts will receive their full salary if they're on the 53-man roster and a lower split if they're on injured reserve. For a rookie making the league minimum, the difference would be 1/17th of $450,000 each week on the active roster and 1/17th of $330,000 each week on IR.

I am sorry Amba and Steve got hurt but it is good to see they will get some money as they work to get better...

$20 grand a week will make rehab a little less unpleasant.
