Free agent Asante Samuel Jr. has signed with the Pittsburgh Steelers' practice squad

After a 4-1 start to the 2025 season, the Steelers are 5-4 heading into Week 11. The team has lost three of its last four games. Pittsburgh is at home in Week 11 to face the Bengals.

Ahead of that matchup, the Steelers made a free agent signing. Former Chargers CB Asante Samuel Jr. has signed with Pittsburgh’s practice squad. The 26-year-old suffered an injury in Week 4 of the 2024 season and hasn’t played sicne. Samuel needed spinal fusion surgery and has made a full recovery. He’ll be a much-needed addition to the Steelers’ secondary, which allows the most passing yards per game this season.
