A few notes:

- the vast majority of these moves will be made by releasing or waiving players. A player with 4 or more years of service is a vested veteran and thus is outright released. Those players can sign with another team ASAP. A non-vested veteran is subject to the NFL’s waiver system

- teams can also reduce their roster by keeping players on the PUP list (e.g. Nick Chubb). These players are ineligible to return to game action any sooner than Week 5

- teams will also be placing players on injured reserve. This year, a new rule is in place: teams may designate up to 2 players placed on IR at the cutdown as eligible to return (after at least 4 games missed). In prior years, a player had to be on the team’s initial 53-man roster for one business day to be eligible to return

- on Wednesday at Noon ET, the league will process waiver claims submitted on any player that was placed on waivers. The priority of the waiver claim order matches the original 2024 NFL Draft order (1. Carolina to 32. Kansas City). The waiver is a useful tool to mine for young, developmental talent

- today will be just initial 53-man rosters. Countless more roster moves are ahead in advance of Week 1
