Steelers Activate TE Vance McDonald From COVID-19 List; TE Zach Gentry Placed On IR

The Pittsburgh Steelers made several transactions on Tuesday ahead of their Thursday night home game against the Baltimore Ravens. Several of them include tight ends.

First, Steelers tight end Vance McDonald was activated to the 53-man roster from the Reserve/COVID-19 list on Tuesday. McDonald has missed the last two games. To make room for McDonald on the roster, tight end Zach Gentry was placed on the team’s Reserve/Injured list with a knee injury. Gentry, who was injured in the first quarter of the Steelers Sunday road game against the Jacksonville Jaguars, will need to be on Reserve/Injured for at least the next three weeks.
