St Pierre signed to practice squad

So how does this work for Thursdays game? If St. Pierre is on the PS can he dress for the game on Thursday? It doesn't really do any good to have someone on the PS when the Steelers need a backup for the game...

or did I miss something and Omar will be the backup on Thursday?

PS players cannot dress for the game or even stand on the sidelines with the players. If he's on the PS now they have the option of activating either him or Omar to the active 53 man roster so they can play. At this point Im not sure they've figured out who the official backup will be between the 2.

Should be an interesting competition this week, I don't see why St. Pierre won't be the backup come Thursday night though. I really like this guy and he showed a lot during preseason a couple years back.

I agree, Omar didn't show anything until the last preseason game and he's not ready to go out there and lead us at this point in a real game situation. Brian might not be the best but he's shown potential and he's been in the AFCN for awhile now.
