What did the Steelers get right and wrong about their initial 53-man roster?
Cutdown day is a big deal, a tentpole event in the NFL calendar, for the Steelers as much as anybody. While every team tinkers with their initial 53-man roster, that first slate tells us a lot about where teams are. The Steelers’ initial roster can easily strike you as underwhelming this year—even with some names that previously sounded more exciting.
Take, for example, the fact that Cory Trice Jr., Darius Rush, and Beanie Bishop Jr. all made the roster. Alright, that’s cool and all—but who is going to step up when there are injuries?
