Every roster spot calls take
376–400 of 2,502

Wide Receiver (6) On the 53: Christian Watson, Matthew Golden, Jayden Reed, Skyy Moore, Bo Melton, Savion Williams.
Isaiah McDuffie to make the roster
On the 53: Zaire Franklin, Edgerrin Cooper, Isaiah McDuffie Ty'Ron Hopper, Nick Niemann.
Javon Hargrave to make the roster
Defensive Line (6) On the 53: Javon Hargrave, Devonte Wyatt, Chris McClellan, Karl Brooks, Jonathan Ford, Warren Brinson.
Jayden Reed to make the roster
On the 53: Christian Watson, Matthew Golden, Jayden Reed, Skyy Moore, Bo Melton, Savion Williams.
Aaron Banks to make the roster
On the 53: Jordan Morgan, Aaron Banks, Sean Rhyan, Jacob Monk, Zach Bako-Bewele, Anthony Belton, Travis Glover, Jager Burton, John Williams.
Matthew Orzech to make the roster
Specialists (3) On the 53: Daniel Whelan, Trey Smack, Matt Orzech.
Warren Brinson to make the roster
On the 53: Javon Hargrave, Devonte Wyatt, Chris McClellan, Karl Brooks, Jonathan Ford, Warren Brinson.
Jonathan Ford to make the roster
On the 53: Javon Hargrave, Devonte Wyatt, Chris McClellan, Karl Brooks, Jonathan Ford, Warren Brinson.
Mark Perry to make the roster
The last spot went to Perry, but that situation is tenuous at best
Anthony Belton to make the roster
On the 53: Jordan Morgan, Aaron Banks, Sean Rhyan, Jacob Monk, Zach Bako-Bewele, Anthony Belton, Travis Glover, Jager Burton, John Williams.
Nick Niemann to make the roster
On the 53: Zaire Franklin, Edgerrin Cooper, Isaiah McDuffie Ty'Ron Hopper, Nick Niemann.
Jager Burton to make the roster
On the 53: Jordan Morgan, Aaron Banks, Sean Rhyan, Jacob Monk, Zach Bako-Bewele, Anthony Belton, Travis Glover, Jager Burton, John Williams.
Micah Parsons — “PUP list”
PUP: Micah Parsons.
Ja'Tavion Sanders to be cut
Unless the Panthers keep five tight ends, he is unlikely to make the roster.
Luke McCaffrey to make the roster
Luke McCaffrey's roster spot is in danger: The Washington Commanders receiver was active while six other receivers were inactive, so McCaffrey is only likely to make the roster if Washington keeps seven wide receivers.
Malik Davis to make the roster
Davis and Mingo weren't roster locks entering training camp, so the fact that both sat out this week strongly suggests they have secured spots on the 53-man roster.
Reggie Virgil to make the roster
Fifth-round rookie Reggie Virgil hasn't been able to move up the depth chart but is also likely to make the roster.
Elijah Sarratt to make the roster
While he is likely to make the Ravens' roster given the investment Baltimore made in him, he isn't as high on the depth chart.
Tahj Brooks to make the roster
Bengals running back Tahj Brooks appears likely to make the roster as the team's third running back unless Cincinnati adds someone from another roster.
Carson Wentz to make the roster
Carson Wentz played only the second quarter last week and just eight snaps in this game, suggesting he should make the Vikings' roster.
Jonathan Mingo to make the roster
Davis and Mingo weren't roster locks entering training camp, so the fact that both sat out this week strongly suggests they have secured spots on the 53-man roster.
Ameer Abdullah — “Jacksonville will keep four running backs”
The fact that Abdullah didn't play suggests Jacksonville will keep four running backs.
Brashard Smith to be cut
It's also possible Smith doesn't make the roster if Kansas City keeps only three running backs.
Phil Mafah to make the roster
Mafah playing in this game makes it clear that he is behind both and could be in danger of missing the roster.
Bo Melton to make the roster
The only Packers skill-position player who appeared in this game and is likely to make the roster is Bo Melton.
