The Pittsburgh Steelers are reportedly signing defensive lineman Jonathan Marshall off of the New York Jets’ practice squad, a move likely to be made official today, perhaps even announced by the time that this article runs.
That’s not the point though. The point is that the move made was not to promote Carlos Davis from the practice squad, and what that could mean. A seventh-round pick in 2020 for the team, he has had his ups and downs, showing promise as a rookie, but he’s only dressed this season as an elevation due to injury from the practice squad.
