The player limit for NFL teams, currently at 85, will drop to 55 for games played the weekend of Nov. 1, the league said, but active rosters will remain at 45, with 10 players carried on a reserve squad.

The 85-man limit for this week was set after the 24-day player strike ended so that teams could carry as many of the non-union players as they desired.
