Steelers release cornerback Trey Johnson
Charles LeClaire-USA TODAY SportsThe Pittsburgh Steelers may not have made any new additions to their 2019 roster for almost two weeks now, but it would appear they have trimmed their depth cornerback with the release of Trey Johnson on Monday. Done without any fanfare or even a mention on the team’s official website, the news that Johnson has been waived comes courtesy of a line entry on the NFL’s official transaction report.
Signed as one 13 undrafted free agents back in April, Johnson was an intriguing prospect blessed with great speed. Highlighted by his 4.33 40-time at his Pro Day that clearly caught the Steelers eye.
