Maybe practice squad.

That’s weird. Lots of stuff I read said he’d already outplayed vets and was a sure thing

Saints beat guys thought he was going to be on the 53

Saints waived QB Jake Haener and signed DE Fadil Diggs.
Haener was the betting favorite to win the starting quarterback job for the Saints before they went with Spencer Rattler under center. He was released by the team as they trimmed down to 53, signed to the practice squad, and then re-signed to the active roster within a week before his eventual release. The team signed DE Fadil Diggs in a corresponding move.

I believe a starting DE is out this weekend as well. Likely for depth, but could see some action

If he's on the 53, he'll make around $49K this weekend. As opposed to $13K on the PS.

Back on the Practice Squad--they had to waive him b/c he was on the 53 last week. Didn't record any stats, though.

Still, he's collecting a pay check again. Hope he gets called up some more...

I believe he still gets $13k, but if he is on the active roster for 4 games or more he will get the pay bump. At least that's what they said on Hardknocks.

Love your username. McNabb was great but in my imprecise memory, Graves was it.

As a kid Graves was really the first Syracuse qb I remember. Still my favorite qb. I'm still upset he didn't get a chance to go to a bowl game and win a 4th bowl game mvp his senior year.
