Roster Cuts & Final Decisions | Denver News

NFL roster cuts are heating up as teams scramble to trim from 90 to 53 players before Sunday’s deadline—balancing talent, analytics, and risk of losing key players to other teams. Sean Payton reveals tough calls on QBs like Sam Ehlinger, RB Adam Prentice (possibly heading to the practice squad), and defensive positions where injuries and tape analysis dictate decisions. The offense looks stable with four tight ends and five wide receivers—including Lil’ Jordan Humphrey—while defense grapples with depth at DL, OLB (Jonathon Cooper’s status uncertain), and ILB (Karene Reid and Jordan Turner making the cut). Cornerback is stacked, making it hard for players like Reese Taylor to make the final 53, especially after a concussion. Safety and special teams are locked in, but every decision shapes the team’s season outlook. Listen in comfort:Get a discount on a Soli Pillow: http://solipillow.com/discount/dnn.
