Chances are he gets picked up by another team as season starts.

The important thing he is on the team. Know let's hope he leads the Scout team to kick ass and gets noticed there or by another team

Is making the practice squad one step below making the team ?  One step above getting cut ?  Does this mean he will not be on the field when the RR season starts ?

He will not be on the field when the season starts. The RR had 7 QB's at training camp including their starter from last year who was pretty good. Mason came in 4th in a 7 horse race. However one of the horses had been QB at Denver. I think he can play in this league but maybe not with this team.

Yeah, realistically 2 of the 3 spots were already filled, and I suspect that the team really would like to see what Paxton Lynch can do... The fact that they spent one of their valuable practice spots on a 4th qb says a lot about how highly they think of him.

MeanGreenTeeth, I hope you are a dentist .

Nothing but the best for him......

It's a start. When they signed Paxton Lynch I knew that was bad news for Mason. Hopefully, if Lynch sees playing time, he implodes like he did in the NFL. Otherwise, as others have mentioned, he might find a new home on a QB needy team.
