00:00 I think there were a lot of people that felt like if the new rule said,
00:04 "Hey, you can bring a third up off your practice squad on game day,"
00:09 that would have possibly been a good solution.
00:14 The new rule basically says if you keep a third on your active,
00:19 you can bring him up free.
00:21 So what you had in Philadelphia versus San Francisco
00:27 was like a once in, call it every four year occurrence.
00:31 And so we're going to...
00:33 And look, we like, you know, the two guys that are on the roster
00:39 and we think that we're going to have a good practice squad quarterback.
00:45 That's the approach we're going to take.
00:46 Now, there's some teams that will keep a third on their active.
00:50 So it's just really your decision how you want to handle your 53.
00:55 So the new rule still requires you to keep a third on your 53.
01:01 I'll be anxious to see, you know, call it a week from now,
01:06 how many teams have three on their 53.
01:08 I'm sure there'll be a few, but we'll have a third though in the building.
