Los Steelers dan de baja a Cory Trice Jr., facilitando el camino para Donte Kent

Según se informa, los Pittsburgh Steelers han dado de baja al esquinero Cory Trice Jr., un movimiento que mejora ligeramente las perspectivas en la plantilla para la selección de séptima ronda Donte Kent. Kent, quien ha lidiado con múltiples lesiones desde que fue seleccionado hace un año, ahora se enfrenta a un competidor menos en una abarrotada posición de secundaria.

Esta baja reduce el número de jugadores por delante de Kent en el orden de profundidad del equipo. Trice se había perdido aproximadamente 45 partidos en tres temporadas debido a lesiones y solo había disputado un número limitado de jugadas cuando estaba sano. Ambos jugadores habían visto abiertas sus ventanas de práctica el año pasado mientras estaban en la lista de reservas lesionados, pero posteriormente Kent sufrió nuevos contratiempos.
