The Terrible Podcast – Practice Squad Tracker, Joey Porter Jr. Comments, Deadline History, DeShon Elliott Status & More

Season 17, Episode 17 of The Terrible Podcast is now in the can. In this Wednesday morning show, Alex Kozora and I get right into discussing the Pittsburgh Steelers’ initial signings of practice squad players and how one new outsider makes for an intriguing addition. Alex and I also discuss the Steelers’ initial 53-man roster remaining the same as we head into Wednesday.

CB Joey Porter Jr. met with the media on Tuesday, his first such session in quite a while. We go over several Porter comments and then take another deep dive into his contract situation. Alex and I discuss how Porter is really between a rock and a hard place right now. We also discuss the few options he has until the regular season gets underway.

The Steelers have a long-standing rule of not negotiating contracts once the regular season gets underway. Alex and I go over when that rule was put into place and why. We also discuss whether it is indeed archaic and not a benefit to the team in today’s NFL landscape.

Alex and I discuss the reasons given for the Steelers cutting ILB Elandon Roberts on Sunday and how the team supposedly has not completely shut the door on him being a Steeler again at some point. We also discuss S DeShon Elliott starting the regular season on the Reserve/Injured list and the reason that GM Omar Khan gave on Monday for that move.

Later in this show, Alex and I discuss a few other things that Khan and HC Mike McCarthy have said over the course of the last few days.

This 81-minute episode also discusses several other minor topics not noted in the recap above and we end this show by answering several emails we received from listeners.
