Thanks for the comments, Christopher. You are right. Dean and Williams were optioned out after camp ended. It was sloppy for me to go from memory rather than check. However, the NRIs were not reassigned afterward, primarily because it wouldn’t have cost the team anything to keep them. Having said that, if spring camp had continued to its regular end, I would bet my (small and variable) paycheck that Carlson would have remained until the very last cuts. We will never know for sure, however.
With the Summer Camp so short and the format restricted (no external games), my guess is that they will want to keep most all of the 44 around until the very end. A very different camp, for sure….
