The Pittsburgh Steelers are wrapping up their 2018 rookie minicamp on Sunday and it sounds like at least one of the several players invited to participate in the annual event on a tryout basis impressed enough this weekend to warrant the team signing him.
According to his Twitter account, rookie wide receiver Damoun Patterson, a Youngstown State product, signed a contract with the Steelers Sunday afternoon.
