When is the first cut down? - Dallas Cowboys Forum

Is it before the 4th pre-season game or after. I believe they changed the dates and rules this year. Seems they use to have a cut down before the third, and before the4th, then the final 1 week before the 1st game.

Looks to be some tough decisions, especially on Defense.

I believe there has already been one cut down date. I think the roster limit right now is 75.
And, the next one is August 29, but I'm not sure what the roster number is that day.

We've already made our Aug. 29 cuts. I doubt we'll get much action until the 53 man cut.
