The anticipation for the 2024 regular season is here. Teams are preparing for their Week 1 contests, but they need to take care of finalizing their 53-man rosters before preparing for the season opener.

The deadline to cut the roster to 53 players is Tuesday, August 28, as all 32 teams must reduce their roster from 90 to 53 players by 4 pm EST. There will be a lot of cuts across the league, making the decision to release players even more difficult than in years past.

Then with roster cuts, the vested veteran rule comes into play. This rule establishes a player as “vested” after his fourth earned season in the NFL and provides these players with additional benefits, such as skipping the waiver wire if they are cut and guaranteeing their salary if they are on the active roster in Week 1 of the regular season. The practice squad can have up to four vested veteran players, which makes the big names available on cutdown day — but those teams have the option of keeping them on the practice squad because they are not subject to waivers.

Here’s an updated tracker of roster cuts for all 32 teams, taking into account that many of these players will either be picked up by other teams or return to their original teams’ practice squads for 2024.
