NFL teams reduce rosters to 53 men

http://www.nfl.com/news/story/7647259

It's the final round of cuts for many NFL organizations. Now that the preseason is complete and the players have been evaluated, the time has come to separate those worthy of a roster spot and those who aren't.

As teams part ways with their players, NFL.com will keep you posted with every roster cut for the Sept. 5 deadline when teams must have 53 players (not including NFL Europe exemptions).

An (INJ) next to a player's name indicates that a player was waived after reaching an injury settlement.
