Cam Sims has been elevated to the Washington Football Team’s roster for Sunday’s game against the Philadelphia Eagles.
During the 2020 NFL season, there are some new roster quirks in place to help teams out amid the COVID-19 pandemic. One of them involves the practice squad.
As most already know, the practice squad has been expanded to 16 players for the 2020 season, but as part of the new rules, a team can promote two practice squad players to the active roster on game day to extend the unit to 55.
