Steelers reverse their practice squad signings from prior to the Vikings game

The Pittsburgh Steelers are coming off their Week 14 loss to the Minnesota Vikings, and before that game the team made a pair of practice squad moves. The Steelers released wide receiver Tyler Vaughns and defensive back Linden Stephens from their 16-player practice squad, and they signed punter Drue Chrisman and long snapper Rex Sunahara.

Now, less than 24 hours after the 36-28 loss to the Vikings, the Steelers have reversed those signings.

What would cause the Steelers to sign the exact same players they cut is unknown, but if you were to speculate there could be reasons for the decision.
