PITTSBURGH -- The Steelers are on the hunt for a new starting center.

The team announced the release of Mason Cole, who started 34 games in Pittsburgh after being acquired in free agency two seasons ago.

The move clears nearly $5 million in cap space, giving the Steelers even more flexibility with the $30 million increase in cap space announced by the league earlier Friday afternoon.

Cole, who will be 28 next month, had one year left on a three-year, $15.7 million contract signed in 2022.
