49ers roster cuts tracker 2016: Where things stand in cut to 53-man roster

The 49ers have to cut and trade their way down to a 53-man roster by Saturday. We’ll track the moves here.

The San Francisco 49ers have begun the process of cutting down to 53 players, and it is time for a roster cuts tracker. The team cut down to 77 players over the weekend, and has two more cuts to make by Tuesday afternoon. They will then face the San Diego Chargers on Thursday, and have to follow that up with 18 more roster moves to get down to 53 players. They will be mostly cuts, but we could see some trades if the team can land draft picks in return.
