So, what's the deal with practice squad players, anyway? They're basically backup players who practice with the team during the week, but don't play in games. Unless, of course, they're called up to the active roster!
These players are super important to the team, even if they don't play on Sundays. They help the starters prepare for games, and can even fill in for injured players in a pinch. But, do they get to enjoy the team's travel perks?
As it turns out, practice squad players don't get to travel first class with the team. They usually stay behind and continue to practice at the team's facility. But, some teams might make exceptions for certain players, like if they're being considered for a spot on the active roster.
