The Pittsburgh Steelers have already announced the signings of five players who recently participated in the XFL’s inaugural season, which was forced to shut down early, halfway through the year, due to the growing COVID-19 pandemic. Yesterday, general manager Kevin Colbert suggested that more would be signed.
The Steelers currently account for over one third of all of the XFL players who have signed with an NFL team to date, with only one other team, the Atlanta Falcons, having signed more than one (that being two players). This includes the signing of Christian Kuntz, who spent some time in the Summer with the team last year.
