The Pittsburgh Steelers might have a bit of a conundrum on their hands at quarterback leading into final roster cuts, thanks to the strong preseason performance of Skylar Thompson and the injury to rookie sixth-round pick Will Howard, which caused him to miss the entire preseason.
Behind Aaron Rodgers and Mason Rudolph as the top two quarterbacks, the Steelers have a decision to make: keep Thompson and place Howard on the Reserve/Injured list and designate him to return later in the season? Or risk cutting Thompson and trying to sneak him onto the practice squad, keeping Howard safe on the 53-man roster?
