Former Kentucky players waived as NFL teams trim down rosters

On Tuesday, all 32 NFL teams were required to trim their rosters for the 2023 season down to just 53 players by 4:00 p.m. EST. It made for quite a busy afternoon in the professional football world, and former Kentucky Wildcats were not immune to some of the moves. Several one-time ‘Cats received the unfortunate news that they had been waived by their current franchise. Another was traded while a couple received positive updates regarding their playing status for the upcoming season.

Let’s begin with the good stuff. For starters, New York Giants second-year wide receiver Wan’Dale Robinson was activated off the Physically Unable to Perform (PUP) list on Tuesday morning.
