Steelers Release WR Jacob Copeland From Practice Squad, Sign QB Trace McSorley

To make room for quarterback Trace McSorley on the practice squad, the Pittsburgh Steelers are releasing wide receiver Jacob Copeland from the practice squad Monday, the team announced.

This is the second time the Steelers have released Copeland this season from the practice squad. The Steelers signed Copeland to the practice squad on Sept. 12, carrying him for nearly a month until releasing him Oct. 3 to make room for WR Denzel Mims. Copeland split time between Maryland and Florida in college. Undrafted, he signed with the Tennessee Titans and has also spent time with the Minnesota Vikings.
