Steelers Sign G Trai Turner On Thursday

The Pittsburgh Steelers already have a new guard to replace recently released guard David DeCastro and it’s Trai Turner, who visited the team last week.

According to Adam Schefter of ESPN, Turner has signed a one-year deal with the Steelers.

Turner, a multi-time Pro Bowler, played for the Los Angeles Chargers last season. The Chargers acquired Turner in March of 2020 in a trade for tackle Russell Okung. The 28-year-old guard went on to miss seven of the first eight weeks of the 2020 season due to a groin injury before returning for the stretch run. Turner struggled upon his return, allowing 19 pressures in his nine games played, per Pro Football Focus.
