August 26, 2024 - Season 15, Episode 15 of The Terrible Podcast is now in the can. In this Monday morning episode, Alex Kozora and I get right to talking about the early Monday morning transactions that the Pittsburgh Steelers made as they start trimming their roster down to 53 active players by Tuesday afternoon.

We discuss what stuck out overall in that last preseason game, the play of quarterbacks Russell Wilson and Justin Fields, and much more. We discuss the injuries to come out of the last preseason game and players who seemingly helped and hurt their causes against the Lions. With the Steelers now set to set their initial 53-man active roster by Tuesday afternoon, Alex and I go over our final predictions as to what we both think it will look like. We go over each position group in this show and discuss the hardest choices that we had to make. We also discuss the likelihood of the Steelers adding a few outside players to the team prior to traveling to their first regular season game of 2024.
