NFL Preseason Schedule 2015: Week 4 TV Channels, Start Times, Dates For Saints-Packers, Giants-Patriots And More
For players clinging to their NFL dreams, one game remains between them and the final 53-man roster. The NFL preseason culminates with all 32 teams taking the field Thursday night, the very last time players on the fringe can impress coaches and general managers before the final roster are set on Saturday, Sept. 5, at 4 p.m. ET.
The first round of cuts, from 90 to 75, ends Tuesday with all moves to be made before 4 p.m. ET. A large swath of veteran talent has already felt the wrath, like now former Chicago Bears cornerback Tim Jennings, receiver Ryan Broyles from the Lions, receiver Denarious Moore from the Bengals, and veteran center Fernando Velasco from the Titans, just to name a few.
Those players won’t have the opportunity to improve their stock on the final day of the preseason, but many can play well enough to warrant a waiver claim before the 12 p.m. ET deadline set for Sunday, Sept. 6.
The last week could also be when several position battles reach a conclusion. There’s the Eagles ongoing saga between reserve quarterbacks Matt Barkley and Tim Tebow, the Bills decision for the starting quarterback job between E.J. Manuel, Tyrod Taylor, and Matt Cassel, and maybe even the Browns on what to do with Johnny Manziel and Josh McCown.
Below is the full Week 4 schedule, including dates, start times, and national and local TV channels.
