On Saturday, September 5, NFL teams were forced to trim their roster to 53 players.
Here is the most notable player that was cut by each team. Players who were cut September 3 or later were considered which is why players such as Leonard Fournette and Mohamed Sanu are not included.
Some of these players will end up starting the year on the 16-man practice squad of the team that cut them. Some have already resurfaced with new teams.
Arizona Cardinals - Kentrell Brice, S
Undrafted out of Louisiana Tech in 2016, Brice was in the starting secondary for the Packers 10 times in 2018.
The Cardinals have cut LBs Evan Weaver & Reggie Walker, S Kentrell Brice, DLs Jonathan Bullard & Trevon Coley, TE Dylan Cantrell, CBs Chris Jones, Ken Crawley and Jace Whittaker, RBs D.J. Foster & Jonathan Ward, OL Koda Martin and WRs Andre Patton, AJ Richardson and JoJo Ward.

Atlanta Falcons - Laquon Treadwell, WR
Since being selected 23rd overall by the Vikings in 2016, Treadwell has yet to perform to the billing of being a first round pick (totaled 65 receptions for 701 yards and two scores in four years).
Falcons released former Minnesota first-round pick Laquon Treadwell, per source.
