Reply to comment by bossmt_2 in [Ari Meirov] The NFL competition committee is expected to have discussions about the third QB rule, which would allow teams to have an emergency QB in uniform (a 47th active player) on gamedays, in case of a worst case scenario situation (like the 49ers in the NFC Championship Game). by IrwinRSchyster1

Yeah, you need to cut a PS player, but teams(at least good ones) do that all the time.

You don’t need to cut a player from the active roster to escalate someone from the PS. Each week you can escalate any 2 PS players to the active roster, giving you a total of up to 55 players. You can do this with any PS player up to 3 times per season before you must sign them to the active roster. They can be active for game day just like any other player on the active roster, so long as your total active players does not exceed 46.
