Reisman’s Lions 53-man: Goff, Gibbs, and a Deep WR Group Shape the Final Depth Chart

Jeremy Reisman’s final Lions 53-man projection keeps Goff and Dobbs in the QB room with Luke Altmyer likely on the practice squad; Gibbs anchors a four-back group with depth options like Pacheco if healthy and Saylors/Vaki behind him. The WR corps is robust, led by St. Brown and Williams and including Dortch, Kennedy, Martin, and others vying for spots; Meeks is a candidate for a fourth tight end. The OL sits at eight, with a DL rotation that excludes Levi Onwuzurike after a rough camp, a five-man edge group, and a six-man linebacker squad (Rolder on IR). Seven corners and four safeties are projected, with Branch/Joseph on PUP, plus usual specialists. The piece notes injury-driven decisions and potential external adds as possibilities before Week 1.

49ers race to 53: rapid cuts loom as Melbourne Week 1 trip tightens schedule

San Francisco’s 49ers have wrapped the 2026 preseason and must trim from 90 to 53 by Aug. 30, with a tight timeline due to a Week 1 trip to Melbourne to face the Rams. They released veteran running back Patrick Taylor after an injury settlement (replaced by Khalil Herbert), but that doesn’t count toward the 53-man limit. Injuries from the preseason finale—Brayden Willis (concussion) and Ephesians Prysock (shoulder)—could affect the initial roster or IR designations. Players like Isaac Guerendo and Mykel Williams remain on the PUP list, meaning they could open the season on PUP if not activated by cuts. Final 53-man projections remain challenging amid 90-man roster questions and the looming cut deadline.
