Waivers
Players released by a CFFFL team are said to
be waived. If a team waives a player during the season,
the franchise gets credit for the player's remaining
contract years, minus the current year. A waived player
goes into the free agent pool the first Sunday after
being waived. This contract year will remain
with the waiving team until either the player is acquired
by another team or March 1.
