It is nearly time for NFL teams to reach 53 players on their active rosters. The Green Bay Packers must reach 53 by 4 p.m. ET on Saturday, September 3rd, so Ted Thompson will have to make 22 more moves to go from 75 players down to the 53-man limit.
At this point, center Corey Linsley is almost assured to be placed on the reserve/PUP list, which would free up one additional roster spot. That would make him ineligible for the first six games, but he would remain eligible to return this season. However, players placed on injured reserve prior to the cut deadline would not be eligible to come back to the active roster before the end of the season.
Who will make the cut and who will be released? Keep our cut tracker bookmarked over the course of the next few days to follow along with all of the roster moves this week.
