The PFT 53-man roster tracker is done, with all 32 teams’ cuts from today recorded.

Although every team in the league had to have its roster down to 53 players by 9 PM EDT, some teams, notably the Browns and the Jaguars, took their sweet old time in announcing their cuts. It’s unclear why those teams decided to wait until almost midnight, but the cuts are now in.

But the 53-man rosters aren’t final. Every team is busily working tonight scouring other teams’ roster moves, to decide if a player waived or released today can provide an upgrade. Most teams will make some changes to their 53-man rosters between now and the first game of the season.

For now, however, our work here on a busy day around the NFL is done.
