On Tuesday, the Pittsburgh Steelers were buyers ahead of the NFL trade deadline. Pittsburgh pulled on a pair of significant trades acquiring wide receiver Mike Williams and edge defender Preston Smith.
To make room on the roster, the Steelers released tight end Rodney Williams from the active roster. The team also waived wide receiver Andy Isabella and linebacker Craig Young from the practice squad.
We would assume that if he clears waivers, the Steelers will bring Williams back to one of those new openings on the practice squad.
We have acquired LB Preston Smith from the Green Bay Packers for a 2025 seventh-round pick, pending a physical.
