Player: DB Anthony Averett
Stock Value: Purchased
Reasoning: Thus far the only tryout player the Steelers have signed after rookie minicamp, Anthony Averett is a legitimate roster candidate. A six-year veteran, he is coming off a season derailed by injury, struggling with health for most of his career. But he is healthy now and ready to compete for a role on defense and on special teams.
The Baltimore Ravens drafted Anthony Averett in the fourth round of the 2018 NFL Draft. He’s since played 1,732 defensive snaps and 365 on special teams, but has missed many more due to injury.
