Behind the Steel Curtain on Kaden Wetjen
From the article
the fourth-round pick still has work to do to secure a spot on the 53-man roster. Kaboly described the rookie as 'on the bubble' as Pittsburgh continues to evaluate its roster ahead of final cuts.
STACKED’s take
Wetjen on roster bubble despite strong Green Bay debut; Jets game quieter with fumble loss.
Fourth-round rookie receiver/return specialist is 'on the bubble' to make the 53-man roster according to Steelers insider Mark Kaboly, despite impressive preseason debut against Green Bay (2 catches, 79 yards, 1 TD including 74-yard reception; 61 yards on 3 kickoff returns, 10 yards on 2 punt returns). His second preseason outing against the Jets was far quieter—he averaged just 7.2 yards on 4 punt returns, lost a fumble in the third quarter, and did not catch a pass. Kaboly's assessment is that one explosive preseason performance does not automatically guarantee a roster spot; Wetjen has one more preseason game against Buffalo to strengthen his case before final roster decisions.
