All 32 NFL teams have to trim their rosters from 75 to 53 by Saturday at 4 p.m., and some clubs already began making their cuts. Check back here for our running tracker of all notable cuts.
Titans: RB Sankey, WR Hunter out
Running back Bishop Sankey and wide receiver Justin Hunter have been cut by Tennessee, according to ESPN's Adam Schefter. That makes it three straight second-round picks the Titans have gotten rid of this summer.
The Titans traded last year's second-rounder, Dorial Green-Beckham, to the Eagles for backup offensive lineman Dennis Kelly. So far, the trade looks like a steal for the Birds.
Sankey was their second-round pick in 2014, and Hunter was their second-rounder in 2013. All three skill players fell victim to the numbers game. The Titans traded for DeMarco Murray and drafted Derrick Henry, making Sankey expendable. They signed Andre Johnson and have been impressed by rookie WR Tajae Sharpe (who's become a trendy fantasy football sleeper), which pushed Green-Beckham and Hunter down on the depth chart.
Bills: Veteran LB Manny Lawson cut
The Bills announced their cuts, which include veteran linebackers Manny Lawson and Kroy Biermann.
The decision further depletes Buffalo's depth at outside linebacker and comes at a time when the NFL is investigating Lawson for potentially violating the league's personal conduct policy. Lawson said he's done nothing wrong, and the NFL has not revealed what it is investigating.
Buffalo also released WR Jarrett Boykin and longtime NFL fullback Jerome Felton.

Bucs make their cuts
The Tampa Bay Buccanneers acted quickly to get down to 53. None of their cuts were notable, but two former Eagles wide receivers were released: Freddie Martino and Jonathan Krause.
Krause caught two passes for 11 yards late last season for the Birds. Martino didn't play in any games but saw time on the practice squad.
