Steelers Elevate Two Players To Active/Inactive Roster From Practice Squad On Saturday

The Pittsburgh Steelers made two transactions on Saturday afternoon ahead of their Sunday afternoon home game against the New York Jets and they include two players being elevated from the team’s practice squad.

Elevated from the practice squad to the Active/Inactive roster on Saturday were cornerback Josh Jackson and outside linebacker Ryan Anderson and now both are expected to dress and play against the Jets at Acrisure Stadium.

Jackson’s elevation can be linked to cornerback Ahkello Witherspoon being ruled out on Friday for Sunday’s game against the Jets because of a hamstring injury. The team also went into Saturday with cornerback Cameron Sutton dealing with a minor groin injury.
