Now that the Pittsburgh Steelers have closed out their 2016 preseason, it’s time for me to release my final 53-man roster prediction.
Please note that this prediction has two sections. The top section is what I predict the 53-man roster to look like Saturday evening right after 4 p.m. deadline. Below that section, I have added the changes I think will be made to the 53-man roster as it relates to the team that shows up for the Week 1 Monday night game.
Initial 53-Man Roster On Tuesday
Offense (24)
Quarterbacks (3) – Ben Roethlisberger, Landry Jones, Zach Mettenberger
Analysis: Now that the Steelers have placed Bruce Gradkowski on the Reserve/Injured list and claimed Mettenberger off waivers, it’s very easy to predict this position group after weeks of uncertainty.
