What to Know The deadline for NFL roster cutdowns to 53 players came and went Tuesday at 1 p.m. PT. All NFL teams can carry 90 players during the offseason, but must get down to 53 active players by the deadline. Most players will be placed on waivers, meaning other teams can claim them, but more experienced veteran players become free agents as soon as they are released and are not subject to waivers. Other players will go on injured reserve or other roster lists that do not count toward the 53-player limit. 49ers insider Matt Maiocco provided his analysis on San Francisco’s initial 53-man roster. Here’s everything you need to know after the San Francisco 49ers set their initial 53-man roster for the 2025 NFL season at Tuesday’s deadline.
