Injury Designations - Commissioner can customize IR eligible injury designations
This setting would give the commissioner the power to change what injury designations are eligible for IR. For example, the commissioner could elect to only allow players with the IR designation into IR roster slots. They could also allow players with D (doubtful) to be IR eligible.
Commissioners would be able to toggle the following designations as IR eligible;
P - Probable
Q - Questionable
D - Doubtful
O - Out
IR - Injured reserve
SUSP - Suspended
NA - Not active
COVID-19 - COVID-19
Currently commissioners can't toggle what designations are IR eligible. O (out), COVID-19 and IR (injured reserve) are the only designations that are IR eligible.

Why does Yahoo never allow commissioners to tend to their leagues? Way too many limits and restrictions on commish powers for a private league. Yahoo pretty much sucks

There have been/are currently players with a DOUBTFUL status that are already projected to get zero points, but not IR eligible. Both should be consistently updated at the same time.

Justin Jefferson is not being recognized on Yahoo fantasy as being eligible for IR when the NFL has him listed as such. This needs to be changed before waivers are processed tonight please

Ryan Walsh commented
Either the commissioner should be able to change this, or the "O" designation should not be one that is allowed for an IR roster spot.

If you dont do exactly this just implement what you guys did for fantasy basketball when COVID was going wild which was a IL+ slot.

Bryan Teagle commented
Why are we still waiting for this to be implemented?

I’ve been saying and wanting this for quite some time. Allow users to customize the IR spot. DOUBTFUL players 9 out of 10 times, do NOT play. Allow users to move DOUBTFUL players to the IR spot.

Paul Caraccio commented
love it, hate that "Out" for one game makes you eligible for IR. IR spot was meant for long-term injuries, now it's an Out spot.
-
Mark Kelley commented
Agreed. And if a player is injured yet unsigned they should be ruled INJ or OUT to become IR eligible. Being ruled NA doesn’t make any sense at all
-
Troy Luckenbaugh commented
Are PUP and NFI considered IR designations?
-
chad mansfield commented
Players who are "NA" or "SUSP" should be able to move into an non-bench position opening up a roster spot. Make the IR spot a IR/NA/SUSP slot.

I really hope yahoo provides us this feature. Every other fantasy app that I use allows for this! It provides so much flexibility in deep keeper leagues. This would be so clutch!

Allow game time decisions to be changed out. Lets say RB1 is game time decision, we should be allowed to Pre-change the player with a substitute. "If RB1 ends up being being out RB2 will be automatically installed as RB1." Not all info is available about players who get ruled out until its to late.

I agree with the request, but I want to add LT-IR as a separate designation to align with the NFL rules (IR = 3 games, LT-IR = 8 games). I want our league to be able to place LT-IR only players in an IR slot.
This, along with the COVID-IR designation are new and commissioners should be able to designate which IR designations they want to allow in the slot.
UPDATE: and NFI-R should be added as well.

Total Agreement. My league only allows IR to go into that position. Any other remains on the bench)

We have had situations where a manager keeps an active player in an IR spot and then does a 2 for 1 trade so that they don't have to ever drop a player in order to make room for the no-longer-IR player. It basically gives them an extra roster spot to leverage which isn't right. They should have to deal with the discrepancy of an active player in an IR spot before being able to make any type of transaction.
Not being able to make waiver moves while having an active player in an IR spot isn't enough because you don't always need to make waiver moves.
