This means that hundreds of players are about to hit waivers and the open market over the next few hours and days.

The Patriots parted ways with four more players. A pair of undrafted rookies — tight end Johnny Lumpkin and defensive tackle Justus Tavai — is among that group, as is linebacker Diego Fagot and safety Brad Hawkins. None of those cuts comes as too big a surprise; all four players were depth options at their respective positions | Patriots roster count: 82 (29 to 53)

New England cut ties with another depth defender as they released Carson Wells on Sunday. The linebacker signed in Foxboro out of the XFL less than two weeks ago. | Patriots roster count: 86 (33 to 53)

The Patriots have swung a player-for-player trade. Sophomore running back Pierre Strong Jr. is headed to Cleveland for offensive tackle Tyrone Wheatley Jr. | Patriots roster count: 87 (34 to 53)

New England decided to part ways with two players one day after its final preseason game: defensive tackle Carl Davis and cornerback Quandre Mosely were both let go on Saturday. Both are candidates to eventually return via the practice squad, with the experienced Davis in particular a player worth keeping an eye on. | Patriots roster count: 87 (34 to 53)

The Patriots left their preseason finale against the Tennessee Titans with 89 players on their active roster. They found themselves one below the 90-man limit after waiving defensive tackle Marquan McCall shortly after claiming him on waivers, to fill a roster spot previously belonging to wide receiver Tre Nixon. | Patriots roster count: 89 (36 to 53)
