As of a few days ago, the Pittsburgh Steelers are now down to just four rookies on their 80-man roster that were originally signed as undrafted free agents back in late April. Those four players are cornerbacks James Pierre and Trajan Bandy, defensive end Calvin Taylor and punter Corliss Waitman. So, with less than one week remaining until the Steelers must trim their active roster down to 53 players, there’s a good chance at least three of those four players will wind up sticking in some capacity come the start of the regular season.
Of the four rookie undrafted players noted above, Pierre seems to have the best shot at maybe sticking on the Steelers 53-man roster as his name has shown up quite a bit and in positive ways in the post training camp practice pool reports.
