NFL roster cuts 2026: Look at how 53-man rosters are taking shape at the cutdown deadline

The deadline for all 32 NFL teams to finalize their 53-man rosters is Sunday at 6 p.m. ET. Waiver claims are due by Monday at 1 p.m. ET.

This means plenty of decisions are being made at football headquarters in order to trim the roster from the 90-man squad mandated during training camp to 53 players.
