Steelers claim guard off waivers from Patriots

The Pittsburgh Steelers are still waiting to find out who will start at quarterback in 2025. The Steelers have a contract offer on the table for Aaron Rodgers but the veteran passer is taking his time deciding on his next NFL home.

Should Rodgers choose Pittsburgh, he’ll have a little more protection after the Steelers claimed offensive lineman Lecitus Smith off waivers Monday, according to Tom Pelissero on X. The 26-year old guard was cut by the New England Patriots last Friday.

Smith was selected in the sixth round of the 2022 draft by the Arizona Cardinals.
