Eligible players, rules for 49ers 2018 practice squad

The San Francisco 49ers have made their cuts to get down to the 53-man roster limit. There will be more roster moves to come this season, and when waivers runs on Sunday, we could see one or more transactions then. Released players with at least four years of service time are immediately free agents, while players with less than four years of accrued service time go through waivers.

Waivers will run Sunday morning at 9 a.m. PT, and after that, teams will begin signing players to their practice squad starting at 10 a.m. PT. Now that the preliminary 53-man roster is set, I thought I would provide a full rundown of practice squad rules.
