The anticipation for the 2024 regular season is here. Teams are preparing for their Week 1 matchup, but have to take care of finalizing their 53-man roster before preparation for the season opener.
The 53-man roster cut deadline is on Tuesday, Aug. 28, as all 32 teams must trim their roster from 90 to 53 players by 4 p.m. EST. There will be plenty of cuts around the league, making decisions to move on from players even tougher than in years past.
Then there’s the vested veteran rule that takes place with the roster cuts. The rule establishes a player as “vested” after their fourth accrued season in the NFL and grants additional benefits to these players, like forgoing the waiver wire if they are cut and guaranteeing their salary if they are on an active roster in Week 1 of the regular season. Practice squads can hold up to four vested veterans, which makes big names available on cutdown day — but an option for those teams to stash them on the practice squad since they are not subject to waivers.
Here’s an updated tracker of all 32 teams’ roster cuts, keeping in mind that many of these players will end up either claimed by other teams or return on their original teams’ practice squads for 2024.
