Expanded roster size
With the new CBA, rosters will expand. They gro from 53 players to 55, with 48 being active on game day – up from the previous limit of 46. Additionally, practice squads will grow from 10 to 12 in 2020, and to 14 players in 2022.
For the Redskins, this will allow them to keep more of the 90-man roster from the preseason and carry them into the regular season. A couple of notable names that have been on that roster-cut bubble in past years were WR Steven Sims Jr. in 2019, and WR Cam Sims in 2018. Both players have been able to make a difference on the Redskins roster, so look for more players to get a chance going forward.
