Will Steelers WR Hakeem Butler make the 53-man roster?

The NFL is a week away from one of the toughest times of the year: roster cutdown day.

On Aug. 29, all 32 NFL teams, including the Pittsburgh Steelers, will have to shrink their rosters from 90 to 53. Among those in question for the final roster spots is receiver Hakeem Butler, who Bleacher Report’s Kristopher Knox believes will be on the outside looking in.

Hakeem Butler made his way back to the NFL after leading the XFL with eight touchdown receptions in the spring, but he doesn’t appear capable of truly aiding the Pittsburgh Steelers as a depth receiver.
