With the first preseason game in the books, the first round of roster cuts are upon us, where the Chicago Bears have to trim their roster from 90 to 85 players before 3 p.m. CT on Tuesday.
This is the first of three roster cuts teams will have to make this summer.
- Tuesday, Aug. 17: 90 to 85
- Tuesday, Aug. 24: 85 to 80
- Tuesday, Aug. 31: 80 to 53
With the Jason Peters signing becoming official on Monday night, the Bears technically have to cut six players, which we’ll track below.
It’s worth noting that players on the Physically Unable to Perform (PUP) list — running back Tarik Cohen and offensive tackle Germain Ifedi — count toward the 90-man roster.
Here’s a look at who has been cut ahead of Tuesday’s deadline:
