The Pittsburgh Steelers signed their 13 UDFAs after the seventh round ended, putting their roster at the 90 man maximum. That group, along with the seven draft picks and certain future contract players, will head to rookie minicamp in a couple of weeks. But they won’t be alone. The team will bring in a slew of tryout players, not under contract but with the opportunity to earn one of those roster spots with a good showing.
Last year, a pair of players got signed out of rookie minicamp. Pitt linebacker Matt Galambos and Fordham tight end Phazahn Odom.
