The NFL deadline for roster cuts for teams to get down to 53-man roster was on Saturday at 6 pm and as the news started coming out about releases around the league, a number of notable players got cut, including Clay Harbor, Matt Leinart, David Carr, Vince Young, Lance Ball, Jacob Hester, J'Marcus Webb and more.

Many of those players have been signed and claimed by other teams, including Webb to the Vikings and Harbor to the Jaguars, while Alex Green was claimed by the Jets after being released by the Green Bay Packers.
