By 4 p.m. ET on Tuesday, Aug. 26, New England and the league’s other 31 clubs will have to reduce their rosters from a maximum of 90 to no more than 53. This means that hundreds of players are about to hit waivers and the open market over the next few days, including up to 38 Patriots.

This year's deadline to trim rosters to the 53-man limit is Aug. 26, meaning front offices around the league have a number of decisions to make regarding the roster bubble. With that in mind, keep it locked right here for an updated list of NFL roster cuts ahead of the 2025 campaign.

Clubs can then place claims on players waived by other teams, and waiver claims will be awarded on Wednesday, Aug. 27. After the waiver wire claims go through at 10 a.m. MT (noon ET), teams can build 16-player practice squads (or 17-player squads if they include an international player).
