There are just a handful of days left in August, and Friday marks the start of the final week of preseason practices for teams across the league. Most teams are set to hold their final training camp practices on Friday, September 4 in advance of rosters being trimmed down to 53 players by 4 PM New York Time on Saturday, September 5. With that in mind, as the pandemic continues to rage across the country impacting multiple walks of life, it may be important to keep the special practice squad rules in mind when projecting roster cuts this season.
