Steelers 2018 7th-round draft pick Joshua Frazier retires from football

While the Pittsburgh Steelers have often been known to re-sign former player over the years, it would appear that one of those options took themselves off the open market on Thursday when defensive tackle Joshua Frazier announced his retirement on social media.

Selected by the Steelers in the seventh-round of the 2018 NFL Draft, the former Alabama product was the first Crimson Tide player ever chosen by Pittsburgh in the Mike Tomlin era.

I’m done with football. I’ve decided...I’ve got a lot going on right now in my life personally and can’t put my 100 into the game I love.
