Apparently, the American Football Coaches Association wants the bylaws changed so that a player can play in a limited number of games (say, three, which is the current limit for a player to claim a medical redshirt) during his redshirt season. The reasoning appears to be, they want to allow for situations where a redshirt isn't penalized with losing a year of eligibility if he is put into a game late in the season because another player got injured.
No, I can't think of any coaches that might want to use this to their advantage either...

It can be abused, but not as bad as the current rule related to medical redshirts -- where players fake injuries to keep their redshirt. It makes more sense to just let everyone have the same exemption.
