With little more than a month to go before training camp opens, we’ve already seen several players invited to training camps on non-guaranteed contracts. In many cases, those deals have taken their respective teams over the 15-man regular season roster limit. That’s OK this time of year, since teams can carry as many as 20 players in the offseason. Clubs must pare their rosters down to no more than 15 by October 28th.
In the meantime, several teams will hang above that 15-man line. Some clubs have more than 15 contracts that are at least partially guaranteed. That means they’ll wind up paying a player who won’t be on their regular season roster, unless they can find a trade partner.
With more movement to come, here’s the latest look at each team’s roster size. Check out our schedule of guarantee dates for more information and to see the names of specific players without fully guaranteed deals.
