Daniel Ekuale, who started a career-high 16 games for the Patriots last season, has agreed to sign with the Steelers according to multiple reports.
The 6-foot-3, 310-pound defensive lineman recorded 52 tackles and one sack last season. His previous career high in tackles was 14 in 2022.
Ekuale signed with the Patriots in 2021 on a reserve/futures contract. Before joining the Patriots, Ekuale had stints in Cleveland and Jacksonville.
The Patriots have made changes to their defensive line this offseason, signing Milton Williams to a $104 million contract after he captured his first championship with the Eagles, and trading Louisiana native Davon Godchaux to the Saints.
