Injury Question

My SS, Fitgerald has missed the last 7 games. He is still probable. ANd has a very high risk of re-injury.
But somewhere in my mind I seem to have a memory of a player being inactive in week 17 guarantees they will have extreme rust for the playoffs. So I should activate Fitz. Am I right?

I'm clueless but never heard of that guarantee.

I've been burned so many times starting players with one week left and low risk of reinjury and sure as shit, they go down for 20 weeks with a torn whateverthefuck. Long as you don't start him and make sure he doesn't play you should be ok though.

Note that the bold is sometimes harder than it'd seem. I forget the specifics but I had a player who I held out of his regular position on the depth chart and he got re-injured on a special teams play or something that I didn't think of ahead of time.
