Every roster spot calls take
1676–1700 of 2,429
Jalen Brooks to make the roster
Brooks has also turned up his performances during camp, putting him close to Smith-Marsette in conversations to make the final roster.
Eku Leota to make the roster
Leota still needs to perform in preseason, but with BJ Ojulari's stock trending down, this could be one of the biggest surprises on the roster.
Teagan Quitoriano to make the roster
TE Teagan Quitoriano — Why he can make the roster: ... Quitoriano's specialization in run blocking could give him a leg-up over his other counterparts hoping to squeeze onto the roster.
Willie Lampkin to make the roster
Lampkin played his way from a roster unknown into prime position to land a 53-man roster spot.
Michael Carter to make the roster
Carter went from batting for a roster spot to a roster lock, based on how the safety competition is going.
Albert Regis to make the roster
out of the five interior defensive linemen on our latest projected 53-man roster, Regis would be No. 5 in the pecking order
Hezekiah Masses to make the roster
But don’t say that too loud; he still thinks he is on the bubble and said he has his focus on making the 53-man roster. Hey, Hezekiah, you have.
Eku Leota to make the roster
just might be an eye-opening finalist to make the final roster over Ojulari
Kedon Slovis to be cut
Slovis' bags are all but packed at this point, as it's only a formality that he'll be cut barring an injury to any of the three quarterbacks ahead.
Christian Jones: a roster call with no direction stated
Now, Jones is on the outside looking in of the roster with Williams and Fryar ahead of him as backup tackle options.
Kitan Crawford: a roster call with no direction stated
makes Crawford an easy lock for the roster
Bam Knight: a roster call with no direction stated
If Arizona does keep a fourth running back, it's clearly Knight.
BJ Ojulari: a roster call with no direction stated
quite honestly he just might be one of the biggest cut candidates entering the next few weeks despite being a second-round pick
Barion Brown to make the roster
Devaughn Vele Listed as the Third Option, Barion Brown a Lock to Make Roster
Khalil Jacobs — “lock down a backup role”
Jacobs should lock down a backup role alongside Chad Muma
Collin Wright — “spot on his hometown team's final roster”
Wright, a Houston native, has done enough to warrant a spot on his hometown team's final roster.
Taurean York to make the roster
If York continues to show out within this deep linebacking corps, he'll sneak onto Denver's roster with a chance to be far more than a special teamer down the line.
Kahlil Benson to make the roster
He's not only jumped out as a lock to make the final roster, but a potential Week 1 starter at right tackle due to his consistent presence with the first team during practice.
Mason Rudolph to make the roster
Couple McCarthy’s comments with general manager Omar Khan backing the possibility of keeping four, and it doesn’t sound like Rudolph is going anywhere.
Mason Rudolph to be cut
Veteran Steelers beat reporter Mark Kaboly took things a step further, writing over the weekend that “Rudolph isn’t getting released, cut, traded, or put on the practice squad. Full stop.”
Drew Allar to make the roster
So, if Rudolph isn’t moved and Allar, the No. 76 overall pick back in April, isn’t going anywhere, then it comes down to whether Howard can show enough during the preseason to win a roster spot.
Drew Allar to make the roster
That leaves Allar, an almost sure bet to make the team, and Howard fighting for QB3 honors.
Cameron Dorner to land on the practice squad
He's been a consistent target for rookie quarterback Behren Morton on the third-string offense and could easily play himself into a practice squad spot by the end of the month.
Ty Robinson to make the roster
Robinson is getting the benefit of the doubt here, and he'll likely make the roster if he shows enough improvements. Right now, that seems to be the case.
Elijah Moore to make the roster
Every day, Moore is making a case to be on this roster. He should be on the 53 over Hollywood Brown if we stopped the count after 10 practices.
