After the Vikings waived Stanley on July 19th, the former Iowa quarterback filed an injury grievance against the Vikings.
Ex-#Vikings QB Nate Stanley has filed an injury grievance against team. Stanley was waived July 19 & sources say he believes that was despite having a FB-related nerve issue going down leg. NFL has placed $172,000 amount on Vikings cap during investigationhttps://t.co/jzFoGQz74j

The injury, as noted by the Pioneer Press’ Chris Tomasson, is nerve related with pain going down his leg. Now that the grievance has been filed, the Vikings will have $172,000 in cap space withheld until the grievance is settled.
If Stanley wins the grievance, he will be awarded the injury settlement he is claiming he should have received. What will be up to him is proving that his nerve issue is directly related to football.
