The Los Angeles Rams have arrived at what may be the most difficult time of the season. With preseason games completed, it's up to the coaching staff to decide who remains on the roster, who to transfer (via the risky NFL waiver wire) to the practice squad, and who will simply have to fulfill football careers elsewhere.

Los Angeles must anticipate potential suspensions for wide receiver Puka Nacua as well as left tackle Alaric Jackson due to offseason incidents. Meanwhile, the team may welcome back for-now-retired defensive lineman Aaron Donald. As if that isn't enough to make fans' heads spin, trade speculation over veteran quarterback Stetson Bennett is heating up.

With final cuts due 3 PM PT on Sunday, August 30, let's track who's in and who's on the outs.
