The Pittsburgh Steelers released WR Jacob Copeland during their roster cuts earlier this week, but Copeland doesn’t feel as though he was given an opportunity to make an impact. Taking to Twitter on Friday, Copeland responded to a fan asking why he was cut, which he said was due to not having an opportunity.
“Didn’t get a chance to showcase preseason. No opportunity,” Copeland wrote on Twitter.

Copeland only played 13 snaps for the Steelers in the preseason, 10 in the team’s preseason opener against the Houston Texans and three in the preseason finale against the Detroit Lions.
