Il Mostro Posted September 21, 2017 Share Posted September 21, 2017 Bishop was productive in the CFL before being signed by the Jets.

I thought you couldn't waive players that were injured? Isn't there some rule like that? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Maybe they gave him an injury settlement, but yes, you are not allowed to wave an injured player . Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
