At times, it seems like their favorite position on the entire roster. They can't have too deep a TE depth chart. The new guy is Jaheim Bell, who the Steelers announced the signing of on Monday.
Bell was most recently with the Philadelphia Eagles , but they waived him last week, which sent him into the free agent pool and allowed for Bell's signing by Pittsburgh. He entered the NFL as a seventh-round pick in the 2024 NFL Draft by the New England Patriots after splitting his college career at South Carolina and Florida State. Bell is listed at 6-foot-2 and 241 pounds and will turn 25 on June 14.
