The Steelers announced that they’ve agreed to terms with 10 undrafted rookie free agents. One UDFA — tight end Jay Rome — was also announced as part of the Chargers’ UDFA class, so there’s obviously been some confusion on the part of either Pittsburgh or San Diego. We’ll include Rome here for now, but he might end up wearing blue and gold.
- Johnny Maxey, DL, Mars Hill
- Tyriq McCord, LB, Miami ($7K bonus, per Aaron Wilson of the Houston Chronicle)
- Will Monday, P, Duke
- Giorgio Newberry, DL, Florida State
- Christian Powell, RB Colorado
- David Reeves, TE Duke ($2K bonus, per Wilson)
- Jay Rome, TE, Georgia
- Quinton Schooley, OL NC State
- Canaan Severin, WR, Virginia
- Devaunte Sigler, DL, Jacksonville State
Jay Rome is also posted on the Chargers list of 20 UDFA’s.
That’s addressed in the intro. A good example of why the UDFA-signing period can be such a mess sometimes!
Tyriq McCord will make this team. Just watch
