The Pittsburgh Steelers made several roster moves yesterday to tweak their 53-man roster and establish their initial 10-man practice squad, and many of those moves have certainly drawn a hefty amount of conversation—much of it angry.
But unquestionably the least discussed move in that group was the acquisition via the waiver wire of defensive end Caushaud Lyons, an undrafted rookie free agent who originally signed with the Tampa Bay Buccaneers and was with the team from the draft all the way through the final roster cuts on Saturday.
Perhaps the Steelers did not really need another defensive end.
