The Pittsburgh Steelers have already made several adjustments to their 53-man roster since the ‘final’ cuts were made, especially if you include the two trades that they made on the day of the cuts, and it is reasonable to assume that they may still further tinker with the 53 they take into Cincinnati in week one to face the Bengals.
In spite of that risk, I thought now would be a good time to take a stab at predicting what the season opener’s inactive list might look like, as it can prompt some discussion about what actually goes into the decisions.
