    Just curious to see when they announce who will be getting added to the 53-man roster and active on Sunday.

    Banner?
    McFarland?
    Taco?
    Tuitt?

    Tuitt would be a blessing but I don't know what his situation is at the moment.

    Who will get called up? Hmm.... possibly Karl Joseph but I would not wager that entirely. Banner is actually on the 53 if I recall but still is not ready.

    If Taco can play at a high level, we can entertain trading Ingram for future draft pick

    Living in dallas i can tell you this guy was considered a huge bust here. At least on the local sports stations. And my wife who is a cowboys fan didn't even know who he was.

    I don't think he has ever been on the active game day roster this year.

    Hoping for McFarland, I still think he will compliment Najee nicely.

    Charlton has never played at a high level in the NFL. He was available because he is a bust. He also isn't really an outside linebacker.

    Agree and this reminds me of a certain QB that we picked up who many think has/had a future with the Steelers.

    I'm actually wondering what's up with akiello Witherspoon...... We used valuable and dwindling draft capital to get him and stashed him on the practice squad where any team could snatch him up at a moments notice..... Would hate to lose him on top of the draft pick that was seemingly wasted....
    Can't believe we're being so nonchalant with this guy

    It is time to accept that they threw away a draft pick. Clearly, he's just not good enough to crack the lineup. If they cared about possibly losing him, he wouldn't be available like that. Once again, the Seahawks got the Steelers to bite on a terrible trade, just as they did with Vannett in 2019. All the more reason the Sunday night victory was sweet despite the shaky performance.

    He’s on the 53 man roster. He just hasn’t played much. I definitely remember him getting toasted by Ruggs a few weeks ago.

    Maybe. Taco you can safely declare a bust at this point. Haskins the jury is still out.

    Taco is one of 4 on the protected list.... I'm thinking that if they accept trade offers for Ingram, then Taco gets elevated

    Just went back to that highlight and realized you're right... But it really seemed to me that the big issue with that play was the lack of safety help over the top... Witherspoon had no business being on an island with probably one of the top 5 fastest athletes in the game

    I haven’t watched it since it happened, but I absolutely agree that he shouldn’t be 1v1 with Ruggs. Whether it was bad design or a safety blowing coverage I don’t know. I just remember that being the first and last time I saw him play.

    I can't remember if was an all out, but We brought quite a few, and I've erased it since.
