2025 NFL roster cuts: Initial New York Jets 53-man roster at deadline

There could still be moves to come, but here is the Jets' initial 53-man roster at the 2025 NFL roster cut-down deadline.

The New York Jets and rest of the NFL have hit the league's deadline for their initial 2025 53-man rosters to be set.

By Tuesday at 4 p.m., all 32 teams in the NFL had to cut down their roster to 53 players or less after starting the offseason with 90. Post-deadline, that number could vary, team-by-team.

Some rosters could have an empty space left open for another addition made by the wavier wire, a trade, or other transaction after rosters are set.

As of now, here is how the Jets initially announced their first roster of 2025 following NFL's deadline:
