Along with Ron’Dell Carter, who the team signed, the Pittsburgh Steelers also worked out former Indiana (PA) and Birmingham Stallions defensive lineman Dondrea Tillman, per a tweet from Pro Football Network’s Aaron Wilson.
Tillman registered 28 sacks and 172 total tackles in his time playing for the Crimson Hawks. He was also a two-time All-PSAC West selection. He also had two defensive touchdowns, including a 51-yard interception return for a touchdown.
In the USFL, Tillman had 36 tackles and 2.5 sacks for a Stallions team that finished 9-1 and won the USFL Championship. Given Tillman’s local ties with his history at IUP and play in the USFL, it makes sense the Steelers would work him out in the wake of T.
