Seahawks Sign Former Steelers WR Miles Boykin

Former Pittsburgh Steelers wide receiver Miles Boykin has found a new NFL home. The Seattle Seahawks have signed him to their practice squad, the team announced Tuesday.

Boykin tried out for the team yesterday and evidently had a good enough workout to be added to the taxi squad.

In the offseason, Boykin departed Pittsburgh and signed a one-year deal with the New York Giants. A special teams ace, most Giants analysts thought he was a sure bet to make the 53-man roster. But Boykin was released at final cutdowns. He spent four days on the team’s practice squad before being released in early September.
