The Pittsburgh Steelers completed the last of their roster cuts and moves to finalize their initial 53-man roster for the 2026 season. But the legendary James Harrison is less than thrilled about one release.
Taking to social media to air out his frustrations, Harrison called out the Steelers for releasing veteran linebacker and fan-favorite Elandon Roberts.
"I hope we don't regret this cause I didn't see this coming in a million years," Harrison wrote via X. "You telling me you brought this man in as a camp body? Cause that's **** sure not what it sounded like was happening when he got here. We gon find out quick if this was a good decision or not in Week 1 vs Bijan though."
Harrison's frustrations were echoed by Steelers Nation, as Roberts won over the Pittsburgh fandom thanks to his high-motor, physical style of play during his two-year stint with the team from 2023 to 2024.
Roberts went on to leave the Steelers for the Las Vegas Raiders in 2025, but ultimately returned to Pittsburgh on a one-year deal just a few weeks ago. It didn't take long for Roberts to impress fans once again, as the veteran defender made several huge plays during the preseason.
