disabled list

Sidelined players register

In professional sports, the disabled list is a roster designation for players too injured to compete, allowing teams to temporarily replace them.

A player goes on the disabled list after a significant injury.

Major League Baseball renamed it the "injured list" in 2019, but the older term persists in casual use and other sports contexts.
