- Steelers release 2 including former first-round pick LB Jamin Davis
The Pittsburgh Steelers announced their first 11 cuts on Friday night and on Saturday added two more as the team works to trim down to 53 players by the Sunday deadline. One of Saturday's cuts was outside linebacker Jamin Davis , a former first-round pick of the Washington Commanders .
Davis had been working as the team's No. 5 outside linebacker since the team signed him but faced stiff competition with a stacked group of edge defenders locked in on the Steelers roster. Pittsburgh is projected to keep T.J. Watt , Alex Highsmith , Nick Herbig and Jack Sawyer , with no room for a fifth outside linebacker.
In addition to Davis, the Steelers also released wide receiver Levi Wentz. Like outside linebacker, wide receiver is mostly set for the Steelers with DK Metcalf , Michael Pittman Jr. , Germie Bernard , Roman Wilson , Ben Skownorek and Kaden Wetjen rounding out the depth chart.
