The Pittsburgh Steelers have placed cornerback Cory Trice Jr. on injured reserve with a designation-to-return label, meaning he’ll miss at least the first four games of the 2025 season. Trice is still recovering from a hamstring injury suffered on August 1st, causing him to miss the rest of training camp and preseason.
Though Trice was rehabbing and making strides towards practicing in full, the Steelers are opting to give him plenty of time to fully recover and against using a 53-man roster spot on him.
It’s the third time in as many years the Steelers have placed Trice on injured reserve.
