Episode 26: Steelers get to 53, and what moves are still to come

Episode 26 of the Steelers Sanctuary Podcast is out.  This episode is all about roster cut down day in the NFL.  We start the pod out with some news.  Jeremiah Moon, and Dylan Cook were both placed on IR.  Each of them are not eligible to return for four weeks.  Ryan Watts was placed on season ending IR.  The injury he suffered in the last preseason game was more serious than originally thought.  

 Next we jump right into the roster moves of the day.  Some surprising cuts were players like Kyron Johnson, and Dez Fitzpatrick.  Both players had good preseasons , and were thought to have a decent chance to make the roster.  Some surprise players who made the roster include Logan Lee, and Jalen Elliot.  The Steelers kept 8 defensive lineman compared to the 6 they usually keep.  We also did not expect the team to keep 5 safeties.  We believe that more moves are coming so stay tuned.

The pod wraps up as we go through each position, discussing any surprises, or disappointments we thought happened.  We believe the wide receivers and corners on this team are particularly weak.
