Steelers Elevate Jon Rhattigan for Week 2 Matchup vs. Seahawks

Pittsburgh plugs a veteran special-teamer into the game-day roster to cover duties during Malik Harrison’s MCL absence.

Overview

  • The Steelers elevated Rhattigan from the practice squad for Sunday’s game against Seattle at Acrisure Stadium and said he will revert to the practice squad afterward.
  • The move bolsters special teams and inside-linebacker depth with Malik Harrison out with an MCL sprain.
  • Rhattigan joined Pittsburgh’s practice squad on September 2 after spending 2024 with the Panthers and being released on August 28.
  • An undrafted Army alum, he first signed with Seattle in 2021 and appeared in 36 games for the Seahawks.
  • The elevation sets up his 2025 and Steelers debut, and he brings 52 NFL games of experience anchored by core special-teams work.
