Clarifying the N/A Rule

With everyone anxiously watching the Vincent Jackson situation I thought I would take a moment to clarify the rule.

If the player is N/A due to a contract issue, not being on a team, or some sort of roster issue then the N/A rule comes in to effect.

If the player is suspended or injured and listed as N/A then the commissioner's will exempt him and allow him to stay on the roster.

Since Vincent Jackson is a contract holdout, he is considered falling under the N/A rule.

Thanks,
