The Pittsburgh Steelers are made a roster move on their 80-man offseason roster, and that move would be the signing of linebacker Jayrone Elliott. After a workout with the team last week, the team decided to bring back the linebacker who spent five weeks with the team in 2019.

This per Mike Grafalo of the NFL Network:

To make room for Elliott, the Steelers released inside linebacker Leo Lewis, but the Steelers could use the extra edge rusher with Bud Dupree banged up.
