Injured Reserve Not Working Properly

Earlier this year, you were able to finally remove unlimited players from IR much like real life.

Now, I cannot remove anyone from IR (except 1 player this season) no matter when they went on IR, and no matter if they are fully healthy or not. I cannot field a full team because of this being an issue yet again. 

The only way to remove people is to add them to the practice squad (if they are eligible) and then sign them to the active roster.

How do we fix this so I can use IR for what it is supposed to be used for? The depth charts literally automatically change and leave open gaps in the lineup when a player becomes healthy, even though the system is broken, and won't let me actually remove the player so he can play, so I'm guessing its a bug they added for some reason, but not sure.

    This is so stupid that we can't take the players off IR once they are healthy. The one season I played allowed me to take 2 players off IR once the playoffs started but not the other 5 that were also healthy. So I had to sign a player and use the backups in the playoffs or I just turned the trade logic off so I can be able to trade for someone. I also think they should have the practice squads like they are in real life. They keep saying that they are trying to make Madden more life like but what about the ones that like to play franchise. We can't take the players off IR once healthy or add players to the practice squad like they do in real life also. They need to update the rule for practice squad and finally fix IR.
