Once the roster cut deadline of 5:00 PM Central passes on Sunday, players with less than four years of service time will be subject to waivers. All 32 teams have the chance to claim every player who falls under this category. The waiver order through week 3 of the regular season is the same as the 2026 NFL Draft order. That means the Tennessee Titans have the 4th spot. If more than one team claims a player, the player will be awarded to the team with the highest priority waiver spot.
If a player has 4 years or more of service time, they do not have to go through waivers. They are free to sign with a team as soon as they are released.
