Placing players on IR

[Gronkanador]

I noticed today that when using the regular season roster, pre existing injuries are not accounted for so for example there are a bunch of patriots player on IR that i would like to use next season in my CCM so i would rather not cut them. Is there a way to place players on IR if they are not hurt as to keep it realistic for future seasons in CCM?

they really dropped the ball on these rosters (shocking!). Instead of having accurate IR list, you have to cut all of the guys from the team. I have not found, nor expect to find a workaround.

Nope. They did a terrible job with the "Week 1" rosters. I play with the Chiefs and there are 3-4 players that should be on IR and they didn't bother "injuring" them so I could place them. They even added Martin Rucker to the roster and still didn't place him on IR. I wish I could do my job terribly and still get overpaid for it.

The workaround is probably wait about a month for the "Week 2" rosters.

If we had complete editing of rosters, including injuries, you would have been good to go. Another reason why roster editing would be useful.

IR doesn't seem to work this year. Before, it'd free up a roster spot but you still kept them next season. This year, it just removes them from the depth chart but you don't have the roster spot to replace them. So what's the point?

Didn't one of the Game Changers say we should "thank him" cause he pointed that out and got it "fixed" (guess only thing he did), well, guess he was wrong or EA really doesn't listen to them at all.

Online or offline? Online CCM it works fine for me, I put someone on IR and I can sign someone else.
