Will the Pittsburgh Steelers keep five combined tight ends and fullbacks/h-backs?
The Steelers spent a good chunk of last season carrying four tight ends on the roster. After Pat Freiermuth suffered an injury early on, they promoted Rodney Williams from the practice squad. But Williams remained on the 53-man roster even after Freiermuth returned from the Reserve/Injured List.
All four tight ends from last year’s roster return for the Steelers in 2024, but now they’ve added another option. They recently signed McCole Pruitt, who has spent five years of his career working with Arthur offensive coordinator Smith.
