I have a team pretty ravaged by injury. I want to bench everyone. What is the minimum number of players I have to have active before the sim redoes my depth chart?

I've had the same experience through the first half of the season. At one point I had 10 defensive players who were injured badly enough to sit. And one each on offense and defense hurt badly enough to put on injured reserve. It's been quite a challenge to fill the holes and compete every game. Just now the team is getting back to good health.
Good luck with your team!

In my experience with MFN, there's really never a time where IRing a player is necessary. The estimated injury time is for the player to return to full health, but they can re-join the starting line-up if needed well before then. This sim is particularly friendly when it comes to long term and catastrophic injuries.
True enough. I'm seeing one of the guys I stuck there making a comeback. He may have been able to return to the lineup for the last two or three games. The other still has an ankle at 8%. So he may be okay on IR. I'm learning a little more each season.
the plus of putting a guy on ir is you can sign another player n not worry bout cuts til next pre-season,as long as u hav the capitol n theres a quality player to grab off fa

I'm not worried. The team that's hurting might be the deepest in all of MFN. I just want to make sure the AI doesn't sub all my injured players back in.

Yeah I only IR if it's late in the season and they're probably not coming back or if I can find a decent replacement but don't want to cut the player.

Related to injuries, does anyone know the impact of certain injuries like a neck injury? (Ankle leg and hand are pretty easy to figure out)

I have the an injury/roster problem too and I just started 2 days ago. The teams only has 49 players on the roster period and in my 1st preseason game 3 Oline and 2 DLine go down. Good thing is that only one injury will last into the season and a few are listed as Proabable. Nice way to start my ownership. Can't even trade - just going to dump some higher paid backups and try to get extra players out of it. Dump 3 get 4 or 5. Need the depth

I play my probables .. be wary of dumping the higher price players in regards to your dead salary cap! Lol
