If you give a player an injury settlement I don't think you can do that.

You can, it just has to be after a certain point. I'm not sure the exact rule, but they were going to resign Rod Streater a few ago, then traded for Kelvin Bigman

In a way, it’s good he left with the injury settlement rather than getting cut. He helped recruit Long, and it would’ve sucked for him to have long make in his stead.

Injury settlements can also give a team a chance at getting a player back during that same season. There is a rule in place that the team (agreeing to a settlement) can’t resign that player until a minimum of six weeks passes following the amount of weeks of the initial settlement. So for our MCL example, the team cannot resign that player for the first eleven weeks. For a player who did a three week/3 game settlement, his team can’t sign him back until after week nine. However, the player is free to sign with another team.

Sirles was good. Wonder if this is a way to re-sign him later on.

 

No he was actually pretty bad. He couldn't crack a bad O Line last year; and when asked to step in at both tackle and guard, he played poorly. He wasn't going to make the team.

Sirles was not good. He was versatile, I suppose... But, below average at two, or more positions is still not good.
