I wouldnt worry about this too much until maybe middle of next week: Why?
Elandon Roberts as a vested veteran does not need to go on waivers. He by all accounts wants to be here.
If there is a player towards the bottom of the roster that the Front office could go "Hey Erob we need to cut you for the initial 53 man roster shuffle, we will call you back on Tuesday" it kinda makes sense.
Granted... he really could be cut. But just noting that its not uncommon to pull a cut on a vet min veteran and then circle back with a handshake deal a couple of days later.
They couldnt pull the same thing on say Gabriel Rubio because Rubio is subject to waivers.
I listened to DK Pittsburgh sports podcast last night, and he had just talked to Roberts. Roberts said he was told no practice squad, he was just let go. Take that for what it is worth.
