Every roster spot calls take
2001–2025 of 2,429
Bam Knight: a roster call with no direction stated
Knight very well could get a final nod thanks to special teams work if a decision comes down between the two of them.
- PendingVito ChircoRoster Spot Calls2026 season
Giovanni Manu to be cut
As for Manu, I feel like the injury is ultimately going to cost him his spot on the Lions’ season-opening roster. In fact, before training camp ends, I could see Detroit parting ways with the third-year pro.
Waiting on the season to settle this.said Aug 2, 2026 Giovanni Manu to be cut
Manu, on the other hand, needed a strong training camp to cement his spot on the roster. Unfortunately for Manu, I think this could be the end of his time as a Lion unless something changes.
Giovanni Manu — “last summer in Motown”
Without injury, it was very likely that this would prove to be Manu’s last summer in Motown.
Roman Hemby to land on the practice squad
even though it would appear he is headed to the practice squad, unless the Raiders keep five RB/FBs
Uar Bernard to land on the practice squad
He's never had a full padded practice, and will be learning on the developmental squad.
Ruben Hyppolite II to make the roster
Their fourth-round pick from 2025 is going to be severely challenged to make the roster, particularly once T.J. Edwards gets back from his calf strain
- PendingJosh MooreRoster Spot Calls2026 season
Carson Wentz: a roster call with no direction stated
The Philadelphia Eagles won't be able to unload Carson Wentz and his mega-contract, so Wentz and Jalen Hurts enter camp in a competition for the starting quarterback job.
Carson WentzPhiladelphia Eagles
Waiting on the season to settle this.said Aug 2, 2026 Kahlil Benson to make the roster
it's absolutely cause for optimism for Benson's path to making the 53-man roster
Hakeem Butler to make the roster
There's Waddle, Courtland Sutton, Mims, Bryant, Franklin, and Humphrey, which will make it difficult for Butler to crack the roster... If they keep five wideouts on the 53-man roster, as they have the past three years, it would be hard to see Butler outshining Mims, Bryan, or Franklin for the fifth spot.
- PendingNic BodifordRoster Spot Calls2026 season
Chris Brazzell: a roster call with no direction stated
Brazzell's Wednesday LCL sprain is expected to sideline him for the entire season
Waiting on the season to settle this.said Jul 31, 2026 - PendingGordon McGuinnessRoster Spot Calls2026 season
Micah Parsons: a roster call with no direction stated
because he suffered an ACL injury so late in the season, he is unlikely to be ready for Week 1. He could miss at least the first quarter of the season, and possibly longer
Waiting on the season to settle this.said Jul 29, 2026 Josh Palmer to make the roster
But for now, I'll I'll roll with Palmer
Connor McGovern to make the roster
So the nine that I picked, Dawkins, Anderson, McGovern, Torrance Brown, Tylen Grable, Cedric Vampyre, and Granger, Austin Corbett, Jude Bowery.
Jimmy Ciarlo to be cut
which means Keonta Jenkins, Jimmy Charlo, and Theron Gaines are on the outside looking in
Ty Johnson to make the roster
James Cook, Ray Davis, and Ty Johnson, which means Frank Gore and Ian Wheeler would not make the roster.
Khalil Shakir to make the roster
DJ Moore, Khalil Shakir, Keon Coleman, Skyler Bell, the rookie, Josh Palmer, that's five.
Tyrell Shavers — “starts the year on the PUP list”
Tyrell Shavers, I believe, starts the year on the pop list, the physically unable to perform
Sedrick Van Pran-Granger to make the roster
I'll go with Cedric Van Prey and Granger right now.
Ian Wheeler to be cut
which means Frank Gore and Ian Wheeler would not make the roster
Damar Hamlin to be cut
Lamar Hamlin doesn't make it, and, neither does Wanda Owens.
Joe Andreessen to make the roster
So the five that I have making it, Terrell Bernard, Doreen Williams, Caleb Alarmzor, the fourth round pick out of TCU, Joe Andreessen, and Demetrius Flanagan folds.
Jackson Hawes to make the roster
I think the Bills are roster three tight ends. Dalton Kinkade, Dawson Knox, and Jackson Hawes.
Theron Gaines to be cut
which means Keonta Jenkins, Jimmy Charlo, and Theron Gaines are on the outside looking in
Quentin Skinner to be cut
which means McColl Hardman, Max Tomczak, Macdalena, Jamori Macklin, Jalen Virgil, Steven Gosnell, Quentin Skinner, all not making the roster
