Here are the NFL Players Currently on the PUP List and What the PUP List Means

At the start of every NFL training camp, the PUP (physically unable to perform) list becomes an important benchmark for players recovering from significant injuries or offseason surgeries.

Here our panel of doctors will provide analysis on its significance and how much you should track whether a player is on the PUP list or not.

What’s the Significance of the PUP List?

A player’s placement on the PUP can signify several things, but the most likely factor is that he did not pass his entry physical at training camp. Passing a physical is not black and white, thus a player could pass a physical with one doctor while another may have caution about his continuing recovery.

A player not landing on PUP at the start of training camp does not mean he is 100% recovered. It could simply mean that the doctor trusts the team’s plan to manage the players reps and he cannot do any new damage or prolong his recovery by practicing.

A good example of this is 49ers quarterback Brock Purdy. He is not on the PUP list to start training camp, but the team is only allowing him to throw two of every three days while he recovers from offseason surgery to repair the UCL in his throwing elbow.
