He'd presumably still be working out with the team and I guess if he's not then that's a distraction in and of itself. To the larger point I think the game just treats everyone who's on the active roster and the DL when it checks chemistry. Maybe it should carve out an exception for guys on the 60 day DL, I don't know, although I'd think that would need to work both ways (if your team captain goes on the 60 day list, oops, you basically don't have a captain anymore).
