Every roster spot calls take
751–775 of 2,426
Tim Patrick to be cut
His comeback story might reach a roadblock in New York
Mazi Smith to be cut
the Jets have a new-look defense that might not include Smith
Dameon Pierce to be cut
now he is seeking to latch on with the Eagles. The problem is that Saquon Barkley exists, while Tank Bigsby and Will Shipley are already locked into backup roles.
Marquez Valdes-Scantling to be cut
There are probably not enough scraps left to pick up behind CeeDee Lamb, George Pickens and the rest.
Odell Beckham Jr. to be cut
It is still an uphill battle for the three-time Pro Bowler to stay on the right side of the cut line
Ameer Abdullah to land on the practice squad
would be hard-pressed to justify using a roster spot on Abdullah solely as a returner, so he appears destined for the practice squad
Will Levis to be cut
Three years after Tennessee made him the first player off the board on Day 2 of the 2023 draft, he could be out the door.
Darren Waller to be cut
the question is whether there is room for both Ja'Tavion Sanders and Waller
Mecole Hardman to be cut
Three Super Bowl titles and an All-Pro selection as a rookie give Mecole Hardman Jr. an illustrious résumé for someone on the roster bubble.
Harrison Butker — “kicking for Kansas City all season”
Bucker needs a clean game, but I don't think there's any chance that he's doing anything other than kicking for Kansas City this year even if he doesn't have one.
Kristian Fulton to make the roster
But you gotta go, Noah Williams, obviously. You gotta go, Monsieur. You gotta go, you know, I I say the next one has gotta be Fulton.
Felix Anudike-Uzomah to make the roster
I think he's on the roster... I think he made enough plays to, you know, play his way on.
Felix Anudike-Uzomah to make the roster
I would love it if they had somebody better than him, but they don't. So I don't see that there's any way that he's not on this roster to start the season at this point.
Jaden Hicks to make the roster
I think he was one of those guys that they were given an opportunity to play his way out, but I think he's played his way in because, you know, he he's he's he's flashed the first couple weeks.
Garrett Nussmeier to make the roster
and I think that they have to keep three QBs at this point because Nussmeier shown enough that I think he would get claimed.
Kahlil Benson to make the roster
Because I don't think that there's any chance Benson's not on this roster based on what we've seen in the preseason, based on whether they've been playing him.
Andrew Armstrong to be cut
I I'm afraid that they're gonna have to cut him just because they don't have another returner.
L'Jarius Sneed to make the roster
but between the field and Snead, with what they got to work with money wise, I'm going with Snead.
Jalin Hyatt to make the roster
Hyatt, whose chances of making the roster weren't very strong to begin with, has been sidelined most of the training camp and appears to be heading to IR.
Odell Beckham Jr. to make the roster
Receiver Odell Beckham Jr. began the week with a 50/50 chance of making the 53-man roster. But between the season-ending ACL injury to Calvin Austin III and Beckham's own hard work, he's probably closer to having a 95% chance of avoiding the Turk on Sunday.
Mason Rudolph to make the roster
it appears -- based on McCarthy's recent comments --- that his spot on Pittsburgh's 53-man roster is secure.
Drew Allar to make the roster
Rookie Drew Allar hasn't thoroughly outplayed Howard, but he's nonetheless done enough to seal his spot on the 53-man roster.
Zion Wilson to land on the practice squad
There may be a spot for Wilson on the practice squad.
Kapena Gushiken to make the roster
Of the eight UDFAs, Gushiken has the best chance to make the 53. He may be the leader in the clubhouse for the final safety spot
Chance Campbell to make the roster
there's a good chance Chance Campbell makes the roster
