He wasn't transfered until the night between Sunday and Monday, so he was still your player. If you the included him in the match line-up as a kick returner the he would play. Be glad though, since if you had sold him before the game and had him included him in the match line-up then you would had been playing with a smyrf line-up.

bit odd...
you seem to use a different 2nd returner every game.
are your default orders correct for kick returners? could it be one is missing and the game engine is picking one out at random?

He was in your team, since the transfer didn't go through until Monday morning 1 AM server time, since that is when the transfer went through. You might have sold him during the Sunday, but the transfer won't go through until 1 AM server time the following day.

You need 2 kick returners in a game, so if you only have one lined up, then the computer will pick a player for you, in this case it just happened to be the guy you were selling.

If special team player is missing then random player is chosen for the spot on line-up.

Can you please tell me why this can't be instituted for Offense & Defense too? Why does the whole lineup have to be random when one player isn't correct for O & D, but ST works almost like a depth chart?

I knew you're going to ask this question. Special teams were added later in first off-season and we didn't want to penalize managers more, especially because this was new feature which added to complexity of the game. Most of the users aren't AF fans and don't know much about it.

Maybe we could change this also for offence & defence but have to think (or you) something to "reward" those managers who don't set the line-up correctly.

So, please, let it go ... the suggestions:
