As we’ve done in previous years, we’re looking at Pittsburgh Steelers under futures contracts for the 2023 offseason. These players spent most if not the entire year on the practice squad, and we look at what we can expect from them during training camp (hopefully) into the regular season.
TE RODNEY WILLIAMS/TE UT-MARTIN – 6032, 235 lbs.
Quietly, Williams spent nearly the entire season on the Steelers’ practice squad. An outsider brought in as the regular season began, Williams was signed September 13th to replace Justin Rigg. He remained there as the team’s fourth-string tight end throughout the fall and winter.
