Steelers Add Hometown Long Snapper Cal Adomitis to Practice Squad After Kuntz Knee Concern

Pittsburgh adds experienced long-snapping depth with Christian Kuntz limited by a knee issue.

Overview

  • The Steelers signed Cal Adomitis to the practice squad on Friday and released practice-squad linebacker Kana’i Mauga to create space.
  • Adomitis could be elevated for Week 16 at Detroit if needed, with Kuntz’s game-day availability uncertain after being limited in practice.
  • Adomitis, 27, is a Pittsburgh native and former Central Catholic and Pitt standout who earned All-American honors and the Mannelly Award in 2021.
  • He played for the Bengals from 2022 to 2024 and joined the Eagles earlier this season before being waived in early December.
  • The move adds insurance at a precision role after recent reports noted a couple of low punt snaps from Kuntz in recent games.
