Like the Bengals and the Cardinals, the Steelers didn’t waste any time following their elimination from the playoffs to move forward on 2015 business, confirming today that they’ve signed seven practice squad players to reserve/futures contracts for 2015. Here’s the list of players locked up by Pittsburgh so far, via Mark Kaboly of the Pittsburgh Tribune-Review (Twitter link):
- Rob Blanchflower, TE
- Kevin Fogg, CB
- C.J. Goodwin, WR
- Ethan Hemer, DL
- Howard Jones, LB
- Joe Kruger, DE
- Alejandro Villanueva, OL
The Steelers finished the season with a full 10-man practice squad, but so far wide receiver Tim Benford, running back LaDarius Perkins, and offensive lineman Ronald Patrick remain unsigned.
