NFL teams are cutting from their 90-player training camp rosters to the 53-man roster limit for the regular season, and we’ll be regularly updating this space with links to all our posts on the biggest news from roster cutdowns.
When is the roster cut deadline?
The NFL roster cutdown deadline is 4 p.m. ET on Tuesday, August 26, 2025. All NFL teams, which could carry 90 players during the offseason, must be down to 53 players on their active roster by the Tuesday afternoon deadline. Most players will be placed on waivers, meaning they can be claimed by other teams, but more experienced veteran players become free agents as soon as they are released and are not subject to waivers. Other players will go on injured reserve or other roster lists that do not count toward the 53-player limit.
