Not sure what you mean by "can't pay them anymore money".  Teams aren't forced to pay practice squad players a certain amount.

Practice squad players have fixed weekly salaries. Davidson can only make $9,200 per week, regardless of which team’s practice squad he’s on.

You are wrong. I don't know what else to tell you at the moment. If I get time I'll read that section of the CBA again. If you want to post the section that says it is fixed that would be great too.  Until then, neither of our information is substantiated.

Get better bro. See you next year. We should not even consider bringing him back towards the end of the year.

Only way its worth it is if we have a surprisingly great season and he's 100% ready to go.

The starters shouldn't have played week 3 of the preseason. What a joke. Our receiving options have been ravaged this season and its not even week 1 yet.

Now I can substantiate. Here you go:

Go to Article 33, section 3.

Looks like player salary depends on various criteria.  I'll believe you that Davidson falls into the $9,200 tier.

Go to Article 26, section 1.

 

Wrong article. Article 26 is in reference to players on the active roster. 

Go to Article 33, section 3. Which deals with the practice squad.

Yep. I had edited my post that you quoted.  Thanks for posting the correct info anyway in case others saw it before the edit.

In the end, I go with what the CBA says, but there is some conflicting information too.  See this: https://dknation.draftkings.com/nfl/2021/9/1/22651355/2021-nfl-practice-squad-salary-rules-eligibility-size-roster-cuts-covid-19-coronavirus#:~:text=Practice squad players make %249%2C200,comes sniffing around a player.

Practice squad players make $9,200 per week or $165,600 for 18 weeks. Veteran players with over two years of experience will make $14,000 per week or $252,000 for 18 weeks.

Teams are allowed to pay a player a higher salary than the minimum, and this often happens if another team comes sniffing around a player.
