Therefore, keeping "superior players" on the practice squad and keeping "inferior players" on the field works against the coaches' best interests.
The players you pine for to be on the active roster will get there as soon as the coaches believe they are better players than the ones on the active roster. As of last Monday night, the coaches did not believe that to be the case.
