Former Pittsburgh Steelers safety Keanu Neal announced his retirement today on social media.

Neal signed a two-year, $4.25 million contract with the Steelers in March of 2023. He played in nine games that season, starting eight at strong safety. Neal had 33 tackles, one interception and a fumble recovery. The lone interception was very important, stopping a Green Bay drive in the end zone to preserve the victory.

That was his last moment on the field with the black and gold or any team. Neal suffered a rib injury that sent him to IR for the rest of the season.
