Roster rules

Can someone explain the IR and PUP rules in the preseason? Why wouldn't the Niners put the injured TE on IR now, so there would be another spot to look at other players? What about Zeigler going on PUP? Is there some reason why these moves happen closer to the final cutdown?

For preseason, players who are hurt must clear waivers, and Byham likely wouldn't.

Bogan and Holcomb were waived and passed, reverting back to IR list, contracts stay same.

PUP List is Active PUP, he still counts against the 90 man roster, but cant play until put back on active. Reg season PUP means u must sit the 1st 6 games.
