Two more Hilltoppers have been waived prior to the 53-man roster mark, as Darrell Williams, Jr. has been waived by the 49ers and Omarius Bryant has been waived by the Los Angeles Rams.

(ed note — tweets weren’t showing up properly so I just embedded their live-blogs with all of the cuts.)

Bryant has been with the Rams since May 22, 2017 when he was signed by the squad, and spent time on the non-football injury list and practice squad before being cut in September of 2017. He was picked back up by LA in January of this past year.

Darryl Williams, Jr. played in seven games for the 49ers last season, after being signed by San Fran in May before the season started. He started the year on the practice squad before being activated in November.

A total of three Hilltoppers have been cut from NFL squads on Friday, as Deon Yelder was waived by the Saints.
