what's the deal with priest holmes?

"8/22 Asked about Priest Holmes' status during a Monday press
conference, head coach Herman Edwards told reporters he expects the
veteran halfback to open the regular season on PUP. "That's what it
looks like right now. That's kind of our mind-set. ..." No real
surprise here, just further confirmation of what we've previously
heard. If that's indeed the case, team officials would have a
three-week window starting a day after the sixth regular-season game
and ending the day after their ninth regular-season game to determine
whether to activate Holmes, who suffered a season-ending neck injury
last October. Of course, there's still no reason to believe Holmes has
(or will) receive medical clearance to return."

I hope this helps.

Have a good day.
