The Pittsburgh Steelers trimmed their active roster down to 53 players on Saturday and the cut-down list included a few notable player. A few players the team decided to keep on their initial 53-man roster were also a bit of a surprise. Below is a look at the notable Steelers cuts and keeps from Saturday.
Notable Cuts

Switzer, who ended the 2019 season on the Steelers Reserve/Injured list with a back injury, never flourished in Pittsburgh as a pass catcher or as a returner.
