Kelvin Beachum's participation at TE against the Chiefs further fuels conjecture toward Heath Miller beginning the season on the roster and not the PUP list. Brown look like prime practice squad candidates. ![]() Reggie Dunn continues to do everything asked of him well, and is every bit as deserving of a returner's spot as Chris Rainey was in 2012, even if he doesn't take the field with the offense as a receiver. Justin Brown had zero catches against the Chiefs and may have been passed by the bigger Moye. Jerricho Cotchery looks to be the fourth, although with the performance of Derek Moye against the Chiefs and Justin Brown in the first two games and training camp, Cotchery's name can be added to the speculation of Jonathan Dwyer or Isaac Redman being cut by season's start to clear cap space to offer someone an extension, like Sanders. Markus Wheaton is a shoe-in to make the team, although whether he will be the third or fourth has yet to be determined. Wide ReceiverĪntonio Brown and Emmanuel Sanders are locked into the final roster. Alvester Alexander and Jeremy Wright will compete in Week 4 for a practice squad spot, if there are any to be had for running backs this season. Redman has the most reason for concern after missing two straight weeks after suffering a shoulder stinger in practice after the New York Giants game. Depending on the health of injured backs Le'Veon Bell, Isaac Redman and LaRod Stephens-Howling will dictate whether Jones can survive final cuts, despite contributing to the offense and special teams. Running Backįelix Jones played as well as one can for being with his team for less than 24 hours before his first game. While the fourth week is usually played by players about to be unemployed, a few positions have yet to be settled. This is far from a prediction as the Steelers still have one more preseason game to play. ![]() If the third week of preseason action is a glimpse into how team's intend to use their personnel in the regular season, the Pittsburgh Steelers gave us a glance on how they may setup their final 53-man roster.
