Eagles Roster Cuts: A Running Thread of Eagles Roster Cuts Approaching the 53-Man Roster Deadline

In prior years, NFL clubs had three separate roster-cut periods in a race to set a 53-man roster.  However, due to a league rules resolution passed at the 2023 NFL Owner’s Meetings, the roster-cut period has been changed to one chaotic deadline.  NFL teams now have until 4:00 PM/EDT on Tuesday, August 29 to trim their roster to 53-men.  What does that mean? Expect a flurry of moves from the Philadelphia Eagles over the next five-days as Howie Roseman and Co. craft the 2023 Eagles 53-man roster.

Don’t worry! We’ve got you covered!

Below is a running thread of roster cuts by the Eagles as they trim the roster to 53-men.

VanSumeren, Mekhi Garner, Josh Sills, Janarius Robinson Among Final Cuts
