The slow trickle of names invited to Pittsburgh Steelers rookie minicamp has turned into a steady stream. According to the school’s website, Ferris State WR Xavier Wade has received an invitation to the team’s minicamp held next month.
Wade is the latest of several names to be reported on today, including veteran DB Anthony Averett, who will partake in the three-day weekend.
Wade, who played D-II for Ferris State, weighed in at 6004, 192 pounds at his Pro Day, earning an invite to Michigan State. He joined teammate CB Shon Stephens, also invited to Steelers’ rookie minicamp, and the Steelers personally asked Stephens to attend the Spartans’ workout.
