It’s that time of year again, and to use a favorite quote of mine “business is about to pick up”. In other words, NFL roster cuts are taking place as we speak.
The goal here is to get all the news in one place. The Steelers cuts along with the other 31 teams.
Check the rumors to see if the Steelers can find a Tight End or maybe a returner or a RB3?
Also, what player cut would cause you to lose your mind?
What player kept would cause you to lose your mind?
As always be respectful and GO STEELERS!!
(Editorial Note: The deadline for all roster cuts is Saturday at 4 p.m. ET, so be sure to stay tuned to BTSC for the latest news and notes surrounding the black and gold as this article will be updated throughout the day as more news and rumors are released.)
