It was another Monday of Steelers roster moves. Per a team announcement, Pittsburgh waived outside linebacker Ade Ogundeji from the 53-man roster on Monday, while releasing wide receiver Jaray Jenkins from the practice squad and adding wide receiver Lance McCutcheon in his place.

Ogundeji played well on 15 defensive snaps against the Raiders in Week 6, but didn’t offer much value on special teams. With the Steelers looking to get some healthy edge depth back in Week 7, Ogundeji was released but remains a strong candidate to land back on the practice squad.

As for the Steelers’ practice squad wide receiver swap, new addition McCutcheon went undrafted in 2022 before landing with the Los Angeles Rams.
