2015 NFL roster cuts tracker: Teams make final cuts to 53-man roster

Teams have to get their rosters down from 75 to 53 players by 4 p.m. ET on Saturday. Catch up on all the moves right here.

Brad Penner-USA TODAY Sports

With the preseason schedule in the books and the regular season now less than a week away, real football is just around the corner. While this is a time to celebrate for fans, it's also the most stressful part of the year for many players who are trying to fulfill their dream of playing in the NFL.

Teams must pare their rosters down from 75 players to the maximum limit of 53 by Saturday, Sept. 5 at 4 p.m. ET. This is the group of guys that teams will take into Week 1 of the regular season, but obviously rosters can change throughout the season.

Cutting players isn't the only way that teams can get down to mandated roster limit. Players can also be stashed on injured reserve, the physically unable to perform (PUP) list or the 10-man practice squad without counting against the 53-man roster. Players can't officially be assigned to the practice squad until the following day -- Sept. 6 -- after they've passed through waivers, but most teams have a pretty good idea of who they want to keep at this point in the process.
