NFL Agent Practice Exam

To toll a player's contract when the player is on the Non-Football Injury (NFI) list, the club must verify the player's readiness before the sixth game of the regular season. This requirement allows the team to ensure that the player is fit to return to play, which then prevents the contract from expiring during the time the player is unavailable. If the team determines the player is not ready, they can extend the contract through this verification process, thus tolling the contract and maintaining the rights to the player for an additional year without losing that contract year. The other options do not fulfill the requirements for tolling a player's contract. Paying the player's salary is part of the regular contractual obligations but does not have a direct impact on tolling. Allowing the player to practice might indicate they are ready for play but is not a formal requirement for tolling the contract. Placing the player on the active roster is also not sufficient, as the essential action lies in the verification before the sixth game rather than merely activating the player.
