While the Pittsburgh Steelers did not make any trades to bring in depth along the defensive line, as was reported that they were looking into, they did add one player, signing second-year Khalil Davis to their practice squad. Davis, a sixth-round pick in 2020 of the Tampa Bay Buccaneers, is the twin brother of the Steelers’ own Carlos Davis, drafted last year in the seventh round, who also plays on the defensive line.
The Buccaneers let Davis go at the start of October in order to add depth to the secondary, promoting Pierre Desir to the 53-man roster from the practice squad.
