Mike Vrabel and the Patriots have to cut their roster down to 53 players by 4 p.m. on Tuesday. The post Patriots roster cuts live tracker: Who will make the final 53-man roster in New England? appeared first on Boston.

The NFL’s roster cutdown deadline is nearly here, and the Patriots have some work to do to reach the 53-player limit by Tuesday at 4 p.m. The Patriots got a jump on things by cutting 14 players Friday, none of which came as much of a surprise. New England will have to make at least 23 transactions to reach 53 players.

The roster will be cut to 53 players by 4 p.m. ET on Tuesday, meaning that the Patriots must decide who has impressed enough this preseason to earn a spot. While there is the opportunity to add players to the practice squad, they must clear waivers first, which always leaves some unknowns.
