Pittsburgh Steelers updated their 53-man roster prediction after Week 1 of training camp.

The Pittsburgh Steelers had a successful 2024 NFL draft and free agency. After one week of training camp, we’ve decided to update our 53-man roster forecast for the next season.

We still expect the Steelers to add a few players who aren’t currently on the roster as other clubs do. The Steelers still need help at cornerback, wide receiver, and edge defender, but based on who we have, here’s our newest forecast for the start of the season.
