After a series of roster moves, the Pittsburgh Steelers have re-stocked their practice squad. The team has announced they have added safety John Battle and offensive tackle Brandon Walton to the practice squad ahead of this week’s game with the Denver Broncos.
The Steelers were forced to do some serious roster shuffling this week due to multiple injuries along the offensive line. First the Steelers put starting right tackle Zach Banner on IR with a knee injury and followed it up with offensive guard Stefen Wisniewski who went on IR with a pec injury.
This forced the Steelers to promote Derwin Gray from the practice squad and sign former Steeler Jerald Hawkins from the Houston Texans practice squad. Hawkins and Gray will both be on the 53-man roster this week when the Steelers take on the Broncos.
