4 Steelers that should be cut before taking a snap in 2021

While camp is a time for lower-level roster players to prove themselves, these four Steelers should be off the team before they can take a snap.

The Steelers have quite veterans on this roster that don’t offer a lot overall to the team. While training camp and preseason is a time for these players to improve their craft, the odds are most of these players have hit their ceiling. Assuming they don’t make any sort of leaps this offseason, these players are dead weight on the team and offer little in terms of value going forward. Here are the four Steelers players that should be cut before taking a snap.

Steelers Jordan Berry

While I recognize that Pressley Harvin will have to earn his job in training camp, it would be pretty disappointing for Jordan Berry to be the starting punter once the season starts. While Berry had a decent stretch of punting during the 2020 season, his inconsistencies popped up towards the end of the year. At the end of the day, Berry has never been horrible, but he has struggled to consistently put out good quality punts.

With the Steelers investing a draft pick in Harvin, he should be given the benefit of the doubt going forward. While I, and seemingly most of the fans want this, the team has proven that simply drafting a specialist doesn’t promise them a roster spot (I’m looking at you Colin Holba). Unless Berry kills it during camp, he should be cut well before the season begins and allow the team to roll with their newly drafted punter.
