Weird Roster Update: Duke Robinson Waived From IR?

[Proudiddy]

According to Aaron Wilson, the Ravens Insider, we did today:

The Panthers waived guard Duke Robinson from injured reserve.

Now, I distinctly remember us discussing what a disappointment he was when we waived him after camp, so where is this coming from?

And Wilson is on top of a lot of the moves around the league and is often the first to report who's talking to who and who's signing where, so I just find it odd that he tweeted this...

Even the official website has him designated as "Waived/Injured G Duke Robinson" around August 30th IIRC.

So how was that still considered to be on IR? If he was still part of the roster, does this mean another move is to follow?

If he was on IR, then he wasn't taking up one of the 53 slots anyway.

[TruCatzFan]

Wasn't taking a roster spot or cap space for that year if he's on IR if I remember correctly... Baffling

Never underestimate the Duke.

[CBDellinger]

my guess is he wasnt keeping up with the IR treatment the team required. so, they cut him.

[Floppin]

He might be the laziest pos that we've ever had on the team.

Just because you are on IR doesn't mean you are not working. Robinson probably was not doing what they wanted them to do to get healthy.

Another theory is that they were just now able to squeeze him out of the cafeteria.

IR players do count against the cap space.

I heard he got another substance-abuse violation. He can't stay away from deep fried Twinkies.
