The first round of NFL roster cuts is upon us. When are they due? We look at the NFL calendar.
The Miami Dolphins completed their third Preseason game Saturday night, beating the Atlanta Falcons 13-9. The end of the third Preseason means the next big event on the NFL calendar is not another game, but the first round of roster cuts. The NFL allows teams to carry up to 90 players during the preseason, but that number will have to be down to just 53 players when the regular season begins.
The Dolphins are already down to 88 players, having released wide receiver Michael Preston and placing safety Louis Delmas on injured reserve last week.
