With training camp and all three preseason games now complete, the next order of business is trimming the roster from 90 players to 53. In the past, there were two prior smaller cut-down dates, but this year, it is all happening at once. So, by Sunday, August 30, 2026, at 4:00 p.m. MT, the Denver Broncos roster will have to be down to 53 players, and even then, we will likely see a few more transactions in the following days.

When these cuts or trades go down, we will publish them to the tracker as soon as possible and keep updating it through the 4 p.m. MT deadline on Sunday.
