Parham suffered a torn Achilles during Tuesday’s practice.

Pittsburgh signed Parham signed early in the offseason and was pushing to make the team’s 53-man roster. An imposing physical presence at 6’8 and 240 pounds, he failed to appear in a regular season game last season. Instead, he spent 2024 on the Denver Broncos’ practice squad.
