Keisel completes Steelers’ roster
Brett Keisel had been in contact all summer with the Steelers, who wanted to see what else they had on the defensive line before committing to the soon-to-be 36-year-old veteran.
So they agreed to terms on a two-year deal Wednesday with Keisel, who isn无毛视频檛 coming back to be a reserve. He无毛视频檒l line up with the first team soon enough, but whether it无毛视频檚 in 2陆 weeks for the opener is up to his conditioning.
With that roster maneuver out of the way, and armed with the knowledge the Steelers won无毛视频檛 have to keep two long-snappers on the opening-day roster, I can present my take of the 53-man roster, still with one preseason game left tonight in Philadelphia and another next week at home against Carolina:
QUARTERBACK (2) 无毛视频� Ben Roethlisberger, Bruce Gradkowski.
RUNNING BACK (4) 无毛视频� Le无毛视频橵eon Bell, LeGarrette Blount, Dri Archer, Will Johnson.
WIDE RECEIVER (6) 无毛视频� Antonio Brown, Markus Wheaton, Lance Moore, Martavis Bryant, Justin Brown, Darrius Heyward-Bey.
TIGHT END (3) 无毛视频� Heath Miller, Matt Spaeth, David Paulson.
OFFENSIVE LINE (9) 无毛视频� Kelvin Beachum, Ramon Foster, Maurkice Pouncey, David DeCastro, Marcus Gilbert, Guy Whimper, Cody Wallace, Mike Adams, Wesley Johnson.
DEFENSIVE LINE (7) 无毛视频� Brett Keisel, Cameron Heyward, Steve McLendon, Stephon Tuitt, Daniel McCullers, Cam Thomas, Josh Mauro.
LINEBACKER (9) 无毛视频� Jarvis Jones, Ryan Shazier, Lawrence Timmons, Jason Worilds, Arthur Moats, Terence Garvin, Vince Williams, Sean Spence, Vic So无毛视频檕to.
DEFENSIVE BACK (10) 无毛视频� Ike Taylor, Cortez Allen, William Gay, Troy Polamalu, Mike Mitchell, Shamarko Thomas, Robert Golden, Antwon Blake, Brice McCain, Will Allen.
SPECIALISTS (3) 无毛视频� Shaun Suisham, Brad Wing, Greg Warren.
Toughest Cut: Chris Carter. I don无毛视频檛 even know what So无毛视频檕to looks like out of uniform, but on the field he无毛视频檚 bigger than Carter and has made more plays.
In fact, I went looking for So无毛视频檕to in the locker room the other day and couldn无毛视频檛 find him. I asked another reporter where he was.
无毛视频淚n the backfield,无毛视频� came the reply.
The Steelers pride themselves on letting the competition speak for itself, and that无毛视频檚 why I kept So无毛视频檕to over Carter, while also cutting a promising linebacker such as Jordan Zumwalt. I do believe Zumwalt is the riskiest cut, in terms of getting him through waivers and back on the practice squad, but if he无毛视频檚 claimed by someone else the Steelers could put Dan Molls on the practice squad instead. In fact, here无毛视频檚 my 无毛视频�
PRACTICE SQUAD: Nick Williams DE, Chris Hubbard OG, Howard Jones OLB, Rob Blanchflower TE, Zumwalt ILB, Shaquille Richardson CB, Jordan Dangerfield S, Josh Harris RB, Isaiah Green CB, Landry Jones QB.
