2017 NFL Roster Bubble: Biggest Names Who Could Be Cut
GARY DAVENPORTAUGUST 23, 2017


  1. The following veterans are also in jeopardy, even if they don't have the highest of profiles.

    Branden Bolden, RB, New England Patriots

    Bolden has made some noise over his five years in New England, but with Rex Burkhead, Mike Gillislee, James White and Dion Lewis all potentially ahead of him on the depth chart...well, you do the math. It helps that he's a favorite of Darth Hoodie, according to Oliver Thomas of Pats Pulpit.

    Sammie Coates, WR, Pittsburgh Steelers

    Steelers head coach Mike Tomlin already suggested Coates and Justin Hunter are fighting for the team's last wide receiver spot, according to Dale Lolley of the Observer-Reporter. It'll be hard for Coates to win that contest from the sidelines after a knee scope, especially with Hunter looking good during the preseason.

    Cody Latimer, WR, Denver Broncos

    Latimer was once a second-round pick, but this stat line says it all about his three years in Denver: 16 catches for 158 yards. That isn't his best game—it's his career total. Him dealing with knee soreness also isn't helping his chances of surviving roster cuts.

    Geno Smith, QB, New York Giants

    Geno Smith's second preseason game against the Cleveland Browns was a perfect microcosm for why he may not make the team. For most of the evening it looked like he had the backup job sewn up...right up until he threw a back-breaking interception near the goal line.

    Sean Spence, ILB, Indianapolis Colts

    After Spence had a career year with the Tennessee Titans in 2016, the Colts brought him in as a potential starter inside. Instead, he's steadily slid down the depth chart in OTAs and training camp. It will be a mild upset if he isn't cut
