The Steelers cut 21 players and placed Byron Leftwich on the IR.
There are a few shocking cuts but he bulk of the cuts are not surprising. The Steelers released linebackers Baraka Atkins, Mario Harvey, Chris McCoy and Mortty Ivy, defensive lineman Corbin Bryant, defensive backs Brett Greenwood, Macho Harris, Donovan Warren and Da'Mon Cromartie-Smith, running backs James Johnson and John Clay, offensive linemen Colin Miller, Kyle Jolly, John Malecki, Trevis Turner and Keith Williams, wide receivers Armand Robinson, Wes Lyons and Tyler Grisham, tight end Jamie McCoy and kicker Swayze Waters.
The only real shocking cut is that of Mortty Ivy. He was solid all preseason with two sacks, a forced fumble and led the Steelers in tackles twice. The Steelers need to cut five more players by 6pm tomorrow.
