History

Historical Context

After the NFL-AFL merger announced June 8 1966 and completed for the 1970 season, the combined league reorganized into a 26-team, 13-team-per-conference structure and set a 53-player active roster limit. That rule guided Don Shula’s Dolphins and now forces Jacksonville Jaguars head coach Liam Coen to trim injured players like Walker Little to meet the same cap.
