I believe you are right and the midweek sim is when you can go over the limit during the season
As long as your roster doesn't exceed 53, you can sign free agents anytime BUT if you sign them during the game sim, you will need to make corresponding cuts before the game runs or the system will do it for you as we just saw.
Signing players during midweek sim allows you time to see who was actually signed, then you make your cuts before the game sim runs.
Same thing with trades btw, have to make sure to stay within 53 players heading into the game sim.
