From the article

he didn't get much playing time on Thursday night—only 14 offensive snaps. He did have two targets and caught one of them for a 12-yard gain, but he also had a drop. Right now, Roberts is looking like a practice-squad guy at best this season. He's listed as a fourth-stringer on the unofficial depth chart, behind Shedrick Jackson and Deven Thompkins, who are also competing for a roster spot. It wouldn't surprise me if fellow UDFA E.J. Williams Jr. is also ahead of Roberts, meaning the former Cougar has an uphill battle to make the 53-man roster.
