All NFL teams must be at the 53-man roster limit by Tuesday, August 29, at 3:00 p.m. Chicago time, but several franchises have already begun waiving and cutting players.
All players with less than four seasons of accrued service will pass through waivers, while players with four or more (the vested veterans) will become free agents and can sign with a new team immediately.
The Chicago Bears have the number one spot on the waiver wire, and general manager Ryan Poles has said that his scouts are hard at work going over film for any potential adds.
