Former Pitt running back Kevan Barlow, who was trying to become a third-down back with the Steelers, was among 10 players cut today by Coach Mike Tomlin.
Also cut were punter Mike Barr, kicker Connor Hughes, wide receivers Eric Fowler and Dan Sheldon, defensive end Derrick Jones, running back Larry Croom, long-snapper Jared Retkofsky, center Donovan Raiola and linebacker Richard Koonce,
Curiously, Barlow carried four times for 14 yards and scored the Steelers' final offensive touchdown on a 1-yard run in their 27-13 victory against the Philadelphia Eagles last night.
The Steelers had to cut their roster to 75 players by tomorrow. They have to get to the 53-player limit by 11 a.m. Saturday.
