What is a PUP list in the NFL?

What is a PUP list in the NFL? If a player ends up preseason injured, he will be added to the “Physically unable to perform” list for the regular season. Players may get placed on this list at any point in the training season. It attracts no penalty.

If the name of a player is there in the PUP list of players what it will indicate? It means the player will neither play nor practice in the initial six weeks of the season. The player will get the opportunity to attend meetings that will be arranged by the team. He/she can make use of the medical and training facilities and other equipment of the team.

PUP list players will not get counted against the 53-man roster. The player will be eligible for the 90-man roster limit.

Such a measure will not get revoked till the time medical staff confirms it. After clearance, the player may return back to the regular spot on the field. There will be a check After six weeks. If medical staff still find the player injured or not completely cured to play, they will be moved out from the PUP list. The name will be added to the injured reserve list.
