Other rules •Players are paid a minimum of $7200 per week. Teams may negotiate with players for higher salaries if they so desire. •Players on any practice squad may be signed by any NFL team to its 53 man roster, and are then guaranteed 3 weeks pay at the league minimum salary. •A team may not sign a player from its next opponent's practice squad less than six days before the upcoming game.
