Steelers Activate TE Pat Freiermuth, Place S Keanu Neal On IR, Make Flurry Of Roster Moves

The Pittsburgh Steelers have made several roster moves Saturday ahead of tomorrow’s game against the Cleveland Browns. They are:

Activated From IR

TE Pat Freiermuth

Placed On IR

S Keanu Neal

Signed To 53-Man Roster

LB Mykal Walker

Elevated From Practice Squad To Active/Inactive Roster

LB Tariq Carpenter
S Trenton Thompson

Freiermuth has missed the last five games with a hamstring injury he suffered in Week Four against the Houston Texans. NFL insider Tom Pelissero reported this morning that the Steelers planned to activate him off IR. He has eight catches for 53 yards and two touchdowns this season for the Steelers, and his return should hopefully provide a red zone target and a presence over the middle of the field for QB Kenny Pickett.
