Tar Heels in NFL: Many sit out final exhibitions; Bryson Nesbit, others solidify spots
Posted Aug 24, 2025
The final weekend of the NFL preseason was the last audition for some UNC alums before Tuesday’s roster cuts. Fourteen Tar Heels sat out final exhibitions while 18 played. One rookie who made the most of his opportunity was Vikings tight end Bryson Nesbit. Teams must trim their rosters to 53 by 4 p.m. Tuesday with season openers two weeks away.
