Steelers Waive Roberts and Harrison Ahead of 53-Man Roster Deadline
The Steelers released veteran inside linebackers Elandon Roberts and Malik Harrison shortly before the 53-man roster deadline. Roberts, who joined on Aug. 12, had played heavy preseason snaps, while Harrison was due $4.75 million and had limited defensive involvement. The move may allow Roberts to return later since vested veterans don’t have to clear waivers, and it frees additional cap space heading into Sunday’s roster submission deadline at 6 p.m.
