I am surprised that Whyte accepted a practice roster spot but I am happy he did :beauty: How does this work do they get paid a minimum amount of money and then more if they get into the game? And are these players travelling with the team all year?

Gino Guidugli has been released and the Lions have only 3 QB's in their system. Practice roster players receive a $550 weekly stipend. If they are activated for a game, they would receive 1/18th of their contracted salary for each game they are dressed. I don't believe practice players travel with the team on road trips.

Practice roster players can be claimed by other teams, but the Lions could still keep the player by activated him.
