[QUOTE="RonJohn, post: 581274, member: 2426"] When the season starts teams can have 53 on the active roster, but only 46 can dress out on game day. They have 10 on the practice squad for a total of 63 players. The 10 players on the practice squad are not protected. Other teams can sign players off of practice squads. Harrison Butker was on the Carolina practice squad when the KC kicker was injured. During the offseason, NFL teams can have 90 players on the roster. That is why there are so many players right now.(27 extra players per team) The list you are looking at has every player that is currently under contract; veterans, draftees, undrafted free agents, etc. There will be many cuts between now and the end of preseason. Even before the start of training camp there will probably be players cut from one teams roster and picked up by another. The physically unable to perform and injured reserve lists are somewhat complicated. You can't put someone on injured reserve for a week. It is a minimum of something like 8 weeks. Additionally a team can bring a maximum of two players back from injured reserve to the active roster per year. If a star player is only going to be out for a couple of weeks, it doesn't make sense to replace them. EDIT: You will have to look for the 2019 list of NFL players by college team in the fall after the roster cuts. I don't think it will be on the same link. [/QUOTE]
