Sorry, it appears I misread the application of the rules. I was looking at my calendar since I noticed that more than 24 hours had passed from Jim's bid to the next, so I checked the rules about the bids expiring with Thursday games and read the following:

Bidding for Free Agents will take place each week from 12:00am Tuesday until 11:59pm Saturday. Exceptions to this schedule will occur during weeks where there are Thursday games. During these weeks, Bidding will begin at 12:00am Tuesday, and end at 11:59pm Saturday however, players involved in the Thursday game(s) cannot be bid upon from gametime Thursday until the following Tuesday at 11:59pm.

which inferred to me that a player could not be bid on after the start of games, but I saw no mention of a prior bid expiring.
What I failed to read was the bold RED PRINT just below that section which clarified this type of situation by suspending the sale process on the night prior.

If a player's 24 hour challenge period hasn't expired prior to 11:59pm on Saturday, bidding on that player will suspend until the following Tuesday at 12:00am when the 24 hour clock will resume.
If a bid is made on any player between 12:00am Sunday and 11:59pm Monday the bid will be treated as if it were made on Tuesday at 12:00am and the 24 hour challenge period will not begin until that time. Also note, that for players involved in Thursday or Saturday games, the clock will suspend the evening prior to their game(s) at 11:59pm and won't resume until the following Tuesday at 12:00am.

My fault. I apologize there. Jim is not assessed the 23cb cap penalty and can continue to bid for Najeh's services.
Thanks guys.
