What does IR mean in football?

IR is injured reserve on an NFL injury report. A roster list for a player too hurt to play for a stretch. Moving him there opens his place on the active roster.

Will he play?

Not for at least four games. A club may bring a set number of players back from injured reserve in a season; the rest are done until the next one.
