‘Checks All The Intangible Boxes’: Mike Tomlin Explains Why Gunner Olszewski Made 53-Man Roster

Entering training camp at Saint Vincent College in Latrobe, veteran wide Gunner Olszewski was seemingly an afterthought in a deep wide receiver room. Chances were seemingly high entering training camp that Olszewski would be the odd man out in the room once the 53-man roster cuts were made.

Olszewski defied the odds once again in his career though, earning a spot on the 53-man roster for the Steelers on Tuesday afternoon. He made it through final cuts as the Steelers are set to carry six receivers into the 2023 season with Olszewski in a room that also includes Diontae Johnson, George Pickens, Allen Robinson II, Calvin Austin III and Miles Boykin.
