As of Wednesday evening, 43 former Iowa players are currently on NFL rosters. Since last week, the Baltimore Ravens cut Marcus Paschal after initially placing him on injured reserve. Also of note, the Cleveland Browns placed Eric Steinbach on injured reserve.

Below is a list of this week’s preseason games in the NFL. For those in Eastern Iowa, two NFL preseason games will be shown locally Thursday night. KFXA-TV (FOX affilate) will carry the Chicago Bears’ preseason game against the Cleveland Browns, while KGAN-TV (CBS affiliate) will have the Minnesota Vikings’ preseason game against the Houston Texans.

The last preseason game is usually when all the back-ups get an opportunity to make a lasting impression, as all 32 NFL teams are required to have rosters set at 53 players by the start of the regular season.
