Live updates on 49ers roster cuts

Pat’s Update 10:20: The 49ers have released OT Sam Young per Adam Schefter

The San Francisco 49ers closed out their preseason Thursday, and NFL roster cut weekend has officially arrived. The 49ers and all 31 other teams have until 1:00 p.m. PT on Saturday to cut down from 90 to 53 players. It used to be a cut from 90 to 75 players by Tuesday, then 75 to 53 by Saturday, but the league changed that policy. This means potentially over 1,100 players will hit the market this weekend.
