Report: Steelers To Sign OT Obinna Eze To Practice Squad

With Dan Moore Jr. out for Week Five against the Baltimore Ravens due to a knee injury suffered on the road against the Houston Texans, the Pittsburgh Steelers are adding depth in the trenches.

According to a report from NFL Insider Jordan Schultz, the Steelers are signing offensive tackle Obinna Eze to the practice squad Tuesday after working him out at the South Side facility earlier in the day.

Eze, just 25 years old, played at Memphis and TCU in college and competed in the 2022 East-West Shrine Bowl in Las Vegas.

He spent the 2022 season on the practice squad of the Detroit Lions after being waived among final cuts just days after playing 23 snaps against the Steelers in the 2022 preseason finale at Acrisure Stadium.
