Steelers' unexpected roster cut leaves fans heartbroken in stunning shake-up

The Pittsburgh Steelers have one goal in 2025 — winning a Super Bowl. Omar Khan and the front office made that clear the moment the offseason began, aggressively bolstering the roster through key acquisitions and calculated moves.

With a championship mindset comes tough decisions, and unfortunately, that now includes the release of undrafted free agent wide receiver Roc Taylor after the team’s second preseason game.

This one stings a little more than most.

Taylor, a standout from Memphis, quickly became a fan favorite throughout OTAs and training camp. His work ethic was impossible to ignore.
