Steelers Elevate K Matthew Wright On Saturday; Sign ILB Tegray Scales From Practice Squad

The Pittsburgh Steelers made a few more transactions on Saturday ahead of their Sunday home game against the Indianapolis Colts and they include two players being added to the roster from the practice squad.

First, inside linebacker Tegray Scales was signed off the practice squad on Saturday. To make room for Scales on the roster, offensive lineman Derwin Gray was waived. The Steelers needed Scales again due to inside linebacker Marcus Allen (neck) being downgraded to out Saturday on the team’s injury report.

The Steelers also elevated kicker Matthew Wright to the active/inactive roster on Saturday and that means he’ll handle the kicking duties on Sunday against the Colts.
