Caleb Johnson, we hardly knew ya. The Pittsburgh Steelers practice squad linebacker was given his walking papers as the team brought in former Atlanta Falcons and Chicago Bears defender Mykal Walker.
Selected by Atlanta in the 2020 NFL draft, he spent three seasons with the team. In 49 games (20 starts), Walker recorded 187 tackles, 11 passes defended, two forced fumbles, a sack and a fumble recovery. He also had three interceptions, one a pick-six.
The Fresno State product most recently spent time on the Chicago Bears and Las Vegas Raiders practice squad.
We have signed LB Mykal Walker to the practice squad and released LB Caleb Johnson from the practice squad. @BordasLaw https://t.co/3XQcWqQyQp
