2 new Steelers show off new jersey numbers at practice

On Wednesday, the Pittsburgh Steelers got to work in preparation to take on the Washington Commanders. And they did it with the team’s two newest members on the field.

Tuesday, the Pittsburgh Steelers pulled off a pair of trades. The Steelers worked a deal with the New York Jets for wide receiver Mike Williams. They also made a trade with the Green Bay Packers to land outside linebacker Preston Smith. Both guys were on the practice field and showing off their new jersey numbers at practice.

 

Williams will wear No. 18, the same number he wore with the Jets. Williams started his career with the Los Angeles Chargers and wore No. 81 but that number was already taken by tight end MyCole Pruitt.

Smith will wear No. 91. This is the same number he has worn throughout his career.
