5 Steelers who secured their roster spot following Week 3 of the preseason

Miles Boykin had his roster spot in question but has done just enough this preseason

The construction of the room at receiver has been a debate for a while when it comes to who will make the final 53-man roster. Most knew that at least five players at the position would make the team, but the debate was if they would keep six or potentially more. It seems likely that they will roll with six players at the position following the game against the Falcons.

The Steelers like to keep a deep receiver room both in numbers and in talent. Everyone knew that Diontae Johnson, George Pickens, and Allen Robinson II were locks to make this team and make big impacts on offense. Calvin Austin III was seen as a near lock after returning from his lower body injury that knocked him out of his rookie year.

That left a couple of spots to be filled out and there were some interesting options that jumped into training camp. None of those interesting receivers were able to make it through the entire preseason process before getting injured. That leaves two guys sticking out like sore thumbs that will probably make the final roster.

Gunner Olszewski is one guy, but Miles Boykin is the other. He has been a solid special teamer for the Steelers since joining the team last year. He has been quiet for most of the preseason, but he has a solid game against Atlanta. He might not be the best receiver in the world, but he possesses what the club needs in the third phase of football.
