NFL cuts tracker 2023: Live roster news, updates, notable cuts for all 32 teams

By | August 28, 2023

It’s cutting season.

With the NFL regular season set to kick off in less than two weeks, all 32 franchises are tasked with cutting rosters down to 53 players. That means lots of tough decisions — and some unexpected ones, too.

Young, talented players and veterans alike will either find themselves on their teams’ respective practice squads or looking for a new home over the coming weeks with the NFL racing towards Week 1. The waiver wire is typically used to try and sneak players onto practice squads, but some good players have been lost in the process.

As the 53-man roster deadline approaches, expect the cuts to come in fast and furious. The Sporting News is providing the latest team-by-team cut news below.
