10:30 a.m.: The Tampa Bay Buccaneers have cut sixth-round draft pick Danny Vitale, according to The Tampa Bay Times’ Greg Auman.

9:30 a.m. ET: The next day and a half will be fraught with anxiety around the NFL, as the deadline for roster cuts approaches.
Rosters currently stand at 75 players, but each of the 32 teams must trim them to 53 by 4 p.m. ET on Saturday. That means the dreams of 704 players will be dashed, at least for now, as they seek new employers ahead of Week 1.
Some cuts will fall into the category of “expected,” while others will come as complete surprises.
Join us right here throughout the next day or so, as we’ll provide breaking news about all notable NFL cuts.
