Steelers Re-Sign RB Trey Sermon to Practice Squad

Pittsburgh added the veteran runner for depth following his three allowed elevations.

Overview

  • The team announced Wednesday that Trey Sermon has rejoined the practice squad.
  • Sermon was released about a week ago after using up his three practice-squad elevations as the Steelers shuffled spots to cover offensive line injuries to Broderick Jones, Calvin Anderson, and Andrus Peat.
  • He appeared in three games for Pittsburgh this season under the elevation rule before becoming ineligible for further call-ups without a contract move.
  • Sermon flashed in the preseason with 50 rushing yards on 10 carries and a touchdown, plus eight receptions for 46 yards and another score.
  • A former Oklahoma and Ohio State back drafted in 2021 by the 49ers, he has also spent time with the Eagles and Colts and has 42 career NFL games with 506 rushing yards.
