Steelers roster cuts: Deadline to cut roster to 75 players 4 p.m. Tuesday

A few teams are already making cuts after their third preseason game in wake of the 4 p.m. Tuesday deadline to bring their rosters down to 75 players.

While it's not likely the Steelers will make any moves today, they may get a head start on it. Typically, the Steelers have waited until around the deadline to announce their decisions.

The Baltimore Ravens announced the release of tight end Visanthe Siancoe, the player believed to be brought in to help make up for the loss of TE Dennis Pitta, who was lost for the season after a hip injury.

Baltimore signed TE Dallas Clark as well, and it appears they chose Clark over Shiancoe.

The Ravens also released wide receiver Tommy Streeter and offensive lineman Ramon Harewood, among others.

The Ravens played Carolina Thursday night, and with a few more days to evaluate their team, it's not a surprise they are making cuts now.
