Mailbag: Why The Cut From 90 To 75? How Many RBs Make The Team?

With training camp about to begin, what is the point of the cut down to 75 provide a team? Why not leave it at 90 until the final cut to 53?

Bryan: It’s an interesting question. I know as a former personnel man that we would have been so happy if we had 90 guys to play that final preseason game. The idea is to give teams the opportunity to look at a player for their roster even if it was just for a short week before the final cut down.
