NFL Teams Announce Significant Roster Cuts

The Detroit Lions have cut several notable players as they trim their roster to 53, including veteran wide receiver Donovan Peoples-Jones and defensive lineman Pat O’Connor. Peoples-Jones struggled to make an impact throughout the offseason, and despite showing some improvement, couldn't secure his spot. O’Connor, who had a solid preseason, might be re-signed to the practice squad. The Atlanta Falcons released offensive lineman John Leglue, who has been with multiple NFL teams but couldn't maintain a roster spot. The Pittsburgh Steelers have also made significant cuts, releasing multiple players including wide receivers T.J. Luther and Denzel Mims, who was later cut by the Jacksonville Jaguars after a brief stint with them. The Jaguars are also in the process of finalizing their 53-man roster, indicating a busy period of roster management across the NFL.
