Steelers Sign P Chrisman, LS Sunahara To Practice Squad On Wednesday

The Pittsburgh Steelers made a couple of transactions on Wednesday that included two players being let go from the practice squad and two more being signed to the unit.

According to the Steelers, the team has cut defensive back Linden Stephens and wide receiver Tyler Vaughns from the practice squad and signed punter Drue Chrisman and long snapper Rex Sunahara to the practice squad.

These moves come on the heels of the Steelers reportedly bringing in Chrisman and Sunahara for tryouts on Tuesday. These additions are probably COVID-19 related, meaning that the team wants to protect themselves at some specialist positions should a COVID-19 outbreak occur.
