Overview
- ESPN's Jeremy Fowler reported that Marquez Valdes-Scantling is signing with Pittsburgh and is already in the city.
- Multiple reports indicate the deal is for the practice squad, following a previous delay tied to his preference for an active-roster spot.
- The Steelers released cornerback Beanie Bishop Jr. from the practice squad, a move reported as clearing space for Valdes-Scantling though not officially linked by the team.
- Valdes-Scantling’s recent output has been modest, including failing to make Seattle’s 53-man roster and posting four catches for 40 yards in five games with San Francisco before an IR stint and injury settlement.
- He reunites with Rodgers after their 2018–21 stretch in Green Bay, as Pittsburgh weighs further roster moves with the NFL trade deadline at 4 p.m. ET Tuesday.
