Could The Steelers Be Targeting A Proven Veteran With Their 90th Roster Spot?

We’ve just completed the second week of OTAs, and the Pittsburgh Steelers still sit without a full 90-man roster.

All NFL teams are permitted to carry a 90-man roster during the offseason and into training camp, trimming down to 53 players on the active roster right before the start of the regular season. Pittsburgh currently sits at 89 players on the roster and have had an open roster spot for some time now. Given the fact that the team is getting valuable time together during OTAs, it makes one wonder what the holdup is regarding which direction they may take with their final roster spot.
