The Pittsburgh Steelers have released tight end JJ Galbreath from their practice squad, the team announced on Tuesday.

Galbreath, 24, signed with the Steelers this April as an undrafted free agent out of South Dakota. He was waived by the team in the final roster cuts this August, but cleared waivers and was re-signed to the practice squad. He was not elevated for either of the first two games.

A 6-foot-3 3/8, 231-pound tight end, Galbreath showed flashes of that athleticism at the NFL level, but did not turn that into production during a long preseason tryout.

Reading the headline, I know what you’re thinking. Just one? Most of the time, slow starts can be placed on the Pittsburgh Steelers’ offensive side of the ledger. A unit that went an entire season without an opening drive touchdown. A streak that finally ended this season with an opening drive touchdown against the New […]

Following Week 2’s loss to the Seattle Seahawks, the Steelers have made some adjustments to their practice squad.

Per ESPN’s Adam Schefter, Pittsburgh is signing linebacker Ja’Whaun Bentley to the team’s practice squad.

Bentley is the team’s second practice squad signing of the day; the Steelers reportedly added wide receiver Isaiah Hodgins earlier.

To make room for Bentley and Hodgins, the Steelers released rookie tight end J.J. Galbreath and wide receiver Rakim Jarrett from the practice squad.

Bentley was drafted in the fifth round of the 2018 NFL Draft by the New England Patriots. Since then, he has started 68...

A few lucky bounces and Chris Boswell’s leg are all that’s keeping the Pittsburgh Steelers from being 0-2. At 1-1 however, there is tremendous concern following a listless and very underwhelming performance in their home opening loss to Seattle. There is however, a great opportunity for the Black and Gold to get themselves right. The next five weeks bring four opponents whose fortunes have changed dramatically and very much in the Steelers’ favor. The question is whether Mike Tomlin’s crew can take advantage.

In the next five weeks (their BYE week is week five) they will play in New England,...

For the last few years of his career, Ben Roethlisberger got to be T.J. Watt’s teammate. He watched Watt develop into the talent he is today. This talent has now earned him two separate contracts that, respectively, made him the highest-paid non-quarterback at the time. The latter of those came this offseason, and you’d find […]

To start this season, the Pittsburgh Steelers’ defense has been bad. There’s no sugarcoating it. They got beaten up by the New York Jets in Week 1, and more recently, they weren’t good enough against the Seattle Seahawks. One of their biggest issues is stopping the run. They struggle with physicality, getting pushed around by […]

Pittsburgh Steelers rookie RB Kaleb Johnson made a boneheaded play in the fourth quarter in the Steelers’ 31-17 loss to the Seattle Seahawks. He failed to field a kick that landed in the landing zone. This led to Seattle recovering the ball for a touchdown to take a two-score lead. Seahawks TD on kickoff #Steelers […]

The Pittsburgh Steelers are signing former New England Patriots inside linebacker Ja’Whaun Bentley, according to Adam Schefter of ESPN. Bentley visited with the Steelers on Tuesday.

Bentley is a big thumper of a run stopper, who spent seven seasons with the Patriots.

Inside linebacker Payton Wilson has been a big liability in the first two games. Bentley could provide a boost to the run defense defense that has struggled immensely.

The Steelers play Bentley’s former team on Sunday at Gillette Stadium.

Bentley missed nearly all of the 2024 season after sustaining a pectoral injury in Week 2. Before the injury,...

The Pittsburgh Steelers hosted inside linebacker Ja’Whaun Bentley for a visit on Tuesday, according to Aaron Wilsion of KPRC 2 Houston.

Bentley is a big thumper of a run stopper, who spent seven seasons with the New England Patriots.

Inside linebacker Payton Wilson has been a big liability in the first two games. Perhaps Bentley could provide a boost to the run defense if he ends up signing with the Steelers.
