As the 53-man roster cut deadline approaches, the Pittsburgh Steelers have some very tough decisions to make.

The Steelers made an intriguing trade over the weekend, dealing offensive lineman Kevin Dotson to the Los Angeles Rams. This opened up the opportunity for several players on Pittsburgh's roster, namely Kendrick Green, to make the 53-man cut.

Pittsburgh offers plenty of depth in the trenches, which is a good problem to have. Omar Khan dedicated the offseason to stopping the run, and protecting the most important asset on the team in young quarterback Kenny Pickett.

While the Steelers preseason was a fun one given their undefeated record, not every player can make the final 53-man roster. Some will re-sign on the practice squad, while others will need a new home. Here's everything you need to know about Pittsburgh's roster decisions.

When is the Pittsburgh Steelers roster cut deadline?

All roster cut decisions must be made by Tuesday, August 29 at 4 p.m. ET. That means a LOT of players will be given notice in just a matter of days. The Steelers feature depth at key positions, such as offensive and defensive line, as well as the skill positions. Heck, even quarterback is a surplus with Mason Rudolph battling for third string reps.

How many players make the Steelers regular season roster?

Only 53 players can make the final regular-season roster, as per NFL rules. There is room on the practice squad for some players Pittsburgh would rather keep around for depth reasons, though they must first clear waivers and choose to sign up for the practice squad. The final Pittsburgh 53-man roster will be the team they take into Week 1 against the San Francisco 49ers.
