12 former Florida players released or waived on NFL cutdown day

Twelve former Florida players were cut on NFL roster deadline day, including Kyle Trask, Dameon Pierce and Van Jefferson.

On NFL cutdown day, twelve former Florida Gators were released or waived by various NFL teams, including the Browns, Packers, Panthers, Cowboys, Jaguars, Saints, Chiefs, Dolphins, Eagles, and Commanders. The process of being released or waived results in players becoming free agents, unless they clear waivers, in which case they can revert to the injured reserve.

However, three of these players have already found positions on practice squads, with Sapp rejoining the Browns, Elam signing with the Chargers, and Pierce returning to the Eagles. As teams continue to adjust their rosters before Week 1, there is a possibility of further moves.
