Steelers Place Matt Spaeth On IR Designated To Return List

As I suggested the other day, the team has placed Spaeth on IR with the designation to return. Spaeth had surgery on August 10th to repair a Lisfranc injury he suffered during training camp. The team had to wait until today at 4:00 PM to make the move with Spaeth, and this will give him the opportunity to return to practice in six weeks depending on how his recovery goes.

The Steelers also announced the signing of LB Terence Garvin to the 53 man roster. WR Kashif Moore was signed to the practice squad to fill the vacancy.  Garvin was a UDFA out WVU who will likely soon get a chance to contribute on special teams during a regular season game. Moore was a UDFA out of UCONN last year, who originally signed with the Bengals. He was signed to a futures contract in January and was cut by the Steelers on Saturday to get down to the required 53 man roster.
