    The other factor is that the teams get an extra practice squad place for the international programme (or whatever its called) players. So unless they look capableof starting right away, expect them to be stashed. That bonus practice squad spot means they can't be activated.

    Talk about dropping the bombshell a week or two before the start of the season. Indy were rating themselves a chance this season too.

    He's sick of being crocked. Fair enough

    I wonder who is left for them to get in? I bet Kaepernick won't get a call

    They have one of the best back ups in Jacoby Brissett. Just ride the season out with him and get your new franchise QB in the draft.

    Chris Ballard is one of the best GMs in the league so if anyone can get through this he can. Colts are a stacked team so Brissett might even be able to lead them to the playoffs.

    @Sneakdefreak Agreed. Even young Chad Kelly is a talented QB on their roster though a bit of a headcase (suspended first few weeks + got into off field trouble in college).

    Preseason is over and teams are now trimming their rosters to 53 players.

    Cuts tracker: NFL teams finalize 53-player rosters

    Cuts tracker: NFL teams finalize 53-player rosters

    The NFL preseason has ended. The regular season is less than a week away from kicking off and that means it's time for teams to cut their rosters down to 53 players before Saturday's deadline.

    No major names cut but the NY Jets cut RB Elijah McGuire who is a decent player. Could see a RB-needy team like Houston picking him up. Former QB turned WR Tyrelle Pryor is cut by the Jags.

    Houston Texans were busy today. DE Clowney was traded from the Texans to the Seahawks, O-line man Tunsil and WR Stills were traded from the Dolphins to the Texans in a blockbuster trade that included two first round picks and a second round pick going to the Fins. RB Carlos Hyde was traded again this time from the Chiefs to the Texans.

    In non-Texan news Shady McCoy was released by Buffalo and has immediately signed with the KC Chiefs.

    NCAA started with Week 1 this weekend. Watched a cracker between Auburn and Oregon. Decided late in the game (no spoilers here), but very well worth a watch.

    He's on the practice squad though. He's a roster exemption so the Jets get an extra practice squad spot but Holmes can't be activated. Now comes the hard work, if he wants it this is the perfect chance. Spend a year honing his craft and building his skill set. He showed some flashes as a slot reciever but struggle in the rushing game so plenty to work on.

    Eagles are one of the favourites to win the NFC. Obviously a lot depends on if Carson Wentz can get his game back to where it was before his injury but they feel like a genuine Super Bowl contender.

    Cowboys in the same division are also a good side that should make the playoffs. It's hard to tell with the Cowboys as they are talented but always get overhyped by the media. Dak Prescott is a solid QB but not sure if he has enough game to really make the Cowboys a contender. Plus their best player Zeke is still holding out so that could be a distraction. The good news for the Cowboys is they have a relatively soft start to the season with the Giants and Redskins first up.

    He's in the same boat as Holmes and will almost certainly be in the practice squad for the year but be unable to be activated.

    AB is a clown. I knew he was an idiot, but I didn't think he'd go this far.

    This is pretty funny though.:smiling_face_with_open_mouth_cold_sweat:

    The Raiders are desperate for results, but I can see them giving up on him. It's just non-stop drama with him.
