The Pittsburgh Steelers made one practice squad transaction on Wednesday and it included them signing free agent cornerback Brandon Dixon. To make room for Dixon on the 10-man practice squad, running back Brandon Brown-Dukes was released.
Dixon, who was drafted by the New York Jets in the sixth round of the 2014 NFL Draft out of Northwest Missouri State, has bounced around the league with several teams as a practice squad member since entering the league and he spent his rookie season on the 53-man roster of the Tampa Bay Buccaneers.
