title: Precise bye detection for season-long-inactive and mid-season-traded players
type: task
status: planned
description: >-
  The participation signal resolves a player's team-per-week from player_years_teams, which is built
  from active=TRUE gamelogs only. A player inactive all season (no active row) or traded mid-season
  can misclassify bye vs dnp. Add a roster-backed team-per-week source to make bye detection
  precise.

Known-gap follow-up to [[████████████████████████████-████████-████-████-██-████-████████]]. v1 ships three-way (active/bye/blank) where bye is detected via `player_years_teams` (active-gamelog-derived). Edge cases that misclassify: a player dressed-inactive for an entire season (no `player_years_teams` row → bye reads as blank/dnp) and trade boundaries (the conservative rule defaults to dnp).

## Plan

- [ ] Source player team-per-week from a roster table (not active gamelogs only) so all-inactive and traded players resolve their team for bye detection. Verify against a known season-long-IR player and a known mid-season trade.
