The Chargers will begin trimming their roster now that the preseason is in the rearview.
Los Angeles must reduce its roster to 53 players by Tuesday, Aug. 27, at 1 p.m. PT.
In previous seasons, teams had multiple deadlines during the cutdown process. But now, the league reverted to just one big cut to the mandatory 53 players.
On Wednesday, the claiming period for players placed on waivers at the final roster reduction will expire at 9 a.m. PT. Then, L.A. will begin assembling its practice squad of 16 players.
