Gameday inactive requirement is more specific than no appearance; retained separately as a material availability claim. Jev advisory reviewed: Fields inactivity contradicted by subsequent start. Cook initially was QB2, later became starter; uncertain duration scope stays needs ruling. Do not turn promotion to starter into an automatic missed initial backup call.
