Despite Being Eligible, Eli Rogers Not Yet Practicing With Team
Pittsburgh Steelers wide receiver Eli Rogers has officially been able to practice since last week. The fourth-year player has been on the Physically Unable to Perform List, and players on that list are ineligible to participate in practice during the first six weeks of the regular season.
So far, there have been no indications that there is any plan for that to change.
As the Pittsburgh Tribune-Review confirmed yesterday, Rogers told the paper that he and rookie Olasunkanmi Adeniyi only worked on an auxiliary field where injured players—such as Morgan Burnett—do light, non-football work.
