Steelers waived/injured Tuzar Skipper, sign another linebacker

The Pittsburgh Steelers preseason roster continues to evolve as they make a switch at the outside linebacker position. On Monday, the Steelers announced they waived/injured Tuzar Skipper and signed outside linebacker James Vaughters.

James Vaughters has been playing professional football for more than seven seasons as he signed as an undrafted free agent with the Green Bay Packers in 2015 following his college career at Stanford. After landing on the Packers practice squad in 2015, Vaughters ended up on the practice squad injured list in late September before being released with an injury settlement.
