The Doctor Is In: Will Eli Rogers Start The Season On Reserve PUP?

For those of you who listen to The Terrible Podcast (and if you’re not, you should check it out!), you heard David Todd and Dave Bryan pose the question a few days ago of whether Pittsburgh Steelers wide receiver Eli Rogers will start the season on RESERVE PUP or be activated to the 53 roster. The slot WR suffered an ACL injury in the Divisional Round playoff game last January and underwent surgical repair shortly afterward. He was scheduled to be a restricted free agent the past offseason but in light of the injury, the Steelers chose not to tender him, waiting to see his health status this summer.
