The Pittsburgh Steelers are gearing up for their final preseason game in Carolina against the Panthers on Thursday. With that in mind, I figured making my second roster prediction would be timely.
I got bold with my first set of roster projections at the start of training camp last month – which you can read to compare and contrast. Let’s do it again:
Quarterback (3): Aaron Rodgers, Mason Rudolph, Will Howard

Running Back (3): Jaylen Warren, Kaleb Johnson, Kenneth Gainwell
Lew Nichols has made a great run at the roster, but there’s just no need for the Steelers to keep four backs. If and when there’s an injury, he’ll get called up.
Wide Receiver (6): DK Metcalf, Roman Wilson, Calvin Austin, Curtis Samuel, Scot
