    Default What does the term "waived" mean?

    Redskins.com reported that chris clemons, kary carter and ben emanuel have been waived to make room for the 3 new comers.

    What does the term waived mean?

    I hope that does not mean they aren"t with the team anymore. Even though Chris might be out for awhile, he was good for our team as a pass rushing LB. Ben Emanuel was JUST signed here so id find it odd if he was leaving already.

    Sadly, it does mean they are fired, now that doesn’t mean they wont be back...it's just for this year.

    What does the term "waived" mean?










    they "wave" their rights to the player (so other teams can sign) so they can release them, injury settlement, place on IR, etc.....

    im surprised we didn't just stash Clemons on IR, guess they figured he wasn't needed anymore with signing Posey.

    I don't know about Emanuel but I would have to guess that they reached some type of injury settlement with the other two. Sad to see Clemons go.

    They would of had to. I don't think you can just waive a player after he injuries himself in a game without some type of settlement.

    That sucks Clemons is gone, I had high hopes for him, I guess they felt he wasn't needed with Carter around to rush the passer

    There's one your doctor gives you with a gloved finger and one the team does. I don't think either is a treat for the player.

    Or with a torn-up knee. He wouldn't be much use with that, either.

    If they IR him, he is lost for the year. So I would guess that they waive him to sign him once healthy.
