Predicting the final 53

Here is a definition of waived - injured from https://www.nj.com/giants/2016/09/wh...aivedinju.html

Vested veterans can be put directly on injured reserve without being exposed to waivers. This is what the Giants did with fifth-year offensive lineman Byron Stingily, who was placed on injured reserve on Tuesday with a concussion.

*Up until*the first cut-down day, which was Tuesday, injured non-vested players must be placed on waivers through the waived/injured designation before being placed on injured reserve. This prevents teams from stashing young players on injured reserve. Once a waived/injured player clears waivers, he reverts to the team's IR.

Interesting, so yeah, if they wanted to put him on IR, they didn't need to waive him... so I don't know exactly how reliable that IR info is...
