PHILADELPHIA -- The 2023 NFL season will kick off next week, which means teams are cutting their rosters in preparation.

Teams, including the Philadelphia Eagles, were required to finalize their 53-man rosters by 4 p.m. ET on Tuesday.

The Birds released Punter Arryn Siposs. He returned from a leg injury for the Super Bowl but a wayward punt led to a key 65-yard Kansas City Chiefs return that set up a game-swaying touchdown.

Siposs competed with rookie Ty Zentner during camp. Both players have since been let go.

While the Eagles are keeping open the idea of bringing Siposs back, they're exploring their options and could be making a change at a key special teams spot.

Here are some other updates on the roster deadline:
