Former quarterback, safety and linebacker at Oklahoma State, Donovan Woods, made the 53-man roster earlier this week with the Pittsburgh Steelers. Woods had a strong, yet unnoticed pre-season with the steel curtain, playing special teams and linebacker. He made some pretty key plays including 2 sacks and he also played well on special teams. Woods was one of the later players to make the teams final roster cut, beating out Willie Reid for a spot on the roster. This year, Woods will most likely be solely a starter on special teams due to the amount of depth Pittsburgh has at linebacker with James Harrison, LaMarr Woodley and Lawrence Timmons. He was signed by Pittsburgh in Late April and was the first Cowboy from the 2007 class to be signed in the NFL. It will be interesting to see the impact Donovan has on the Steelers shaky special teams throughout the season.
