The team reduced their games on the roster to 53 by releasing 21 players and placing another on the Reserve/Injured List to reach the NFL-mandated 53-player limit. Fans will be disappointed to know that the 6th-year veteran Sean McHugh had to be placed on the team’s Reserve/Injured List since he injured his knee during training camp. The Steelers final roster includes 3 quarterbacks, 4 running backs, 6 wide receivers, 3 tight ends, 9 offensive linemen, 7 defensive linemen, 8 linebackers, 10 defensive backs and 3 specialists (kicker, punter and long snapper). According to Coach Mike Tomlin, cutting the Steelers' roster to 53 players was the first step to building a team he hopes can contend for another Super Bowl title. But it is not the last step. He predicted more cuts throughout the season, depending on the performance of the players. Now, that the Steelers roaster is in place, the fans should be ready to cheer the team.
