Steelers Made 5 Roster Strikes On Wednesday

 

The Pittsburgh Steelers had an up-and-down efficiency of their season-opening win towards the New York Jets.

With that in thoughts, and after coping with some accidents, they’re making some roster strikes.

The Steelers signed veteran security Jabrill Peppers to a one-year contract, signed cornerback James Pierre from the observe squad to the energetic roster, signed quarterback Logan Woodside to the observe squad, and positioned linebacker Malik Harrison and quarterback Skylar Thompson on the reserve/injured record.

Peppers will probably exchange DeShon Elliott, who sustained an MCL harm and will likely be sidelined for a number of weeks.

Even when Elliott returns, having a confirmed veteran like Peppers, who was launched by the New England Patriots on the remaining roster cuts, will likely be useful.

The Steelers’ protection left lots to be desired of their first sport, as Justin Fields helped the Jets rating 32 factors.

On offense, the go safety struggled, and it’s worrisome to suppose that it took a classic Aaron Rodgers efficiency to safe a win.

Rodgers is arguably one of many biggest QBs…
