Steelers Add Depth, Sign Pro Bowl Offensive Lineman
The Pittsburgh Steelers have signed veteran offensive lineman Andrus Peat, head coach Mike Tomlin announced on Thursday. His contract is for one year. Financial terms were not disclosed. Peat will be at practice with the team at St. Vincent College on Thursday and will be eligible to play in the team's preseason opener against the Jacksonville Jaguars on Saturday. The Steelers have been without backup tackle Calvin Anderson, who has been out with a lower-body soft tissue injury. Starting left tackle Broderick Jones is expected to play, but has just recently returned from a groin injury. Rookie Gareth Warren has also been banged up with an unspecified leg injury. He was a limited participant in practice on Wednesday. Peat, 31, is a 10-year NFL vet. The first-round pick of the New Orleans Saints out of Stanford in 2015, he spent nine seasons in New Orleans. Peat played left tackle and left guard for the Saints and started 102 games out of 111 games played in New Orleans. A 6-foot-7, 313-pound lineman, Peat started out as a left guard, moved to primarily playing tackle in 2016, then back to guard for most of the rest of his career, before shifting back to tackle in 2023. He was selected to three Pro Bowls, after the 2018, 2019 and 2020 seasons. A free agent last offseason, Peat signed with the Las Vegas Raiders. He appeared in 15 games and made one start for Vegas last season, playing 34 snaps at left guard, 11 at left tackle and 12 as a sixth offensive lineman, per PFF. In addition to signing Peat on Thursday, the Steelers also signed quarterback Logan Woodside and released guard Nick Broeker and long snapper Tucker Addington. Their offseason roster remains at the maximum of 91 players.

Steelers waive 2, making room for new signings
The Steelers added veteran quarterback Logan Woodside and former first-round offensive lineman Andrus Peat on Thursday to a full offseason roster. As a result, when Pittsburgh announced the signings, two corresponding cuts had to follow. Per a team announcement, the Steelers have waived long snapper Tucker Addington and offensive guard Nick Broeker ahead of the team's preseason Week 1 matchup against the Jacksonville Jaguars. Broeker signed with the Steelers in May, while Addington signed with the team in late June. Following the cuts, Christian Kuntz is the one remaining long snapper on the Steelers. But the offseason roster should remain fluid through the rest of the preseason.

Pittsburgh Steelers Sign 3-Time Pro Bowl Offensive Lineman
Pittsburgh Steelers Sign 3-Time Pro Bowl Offensive Lineman originally appeared on The Spun. Pittsburgh Steelers quarterback Aaron Rodgers and the Steelers offense in general hasn't looked its best through the early days of training camp. But a new addition to the offensive line could help. According to ESPN NFL insider Adam Schefter, the Steelers are signing three-time Pro Bowl offensive lineman Andrus Peat to a one-year contract. They have also signed journeyman Logan Woodside to a similar deal. "Steelers signed G Andrus Peat and QB Logan Woodside to one-year contracts," he wrote on X. Peat was a first-round pick by the New Orleans Saints in the 2015 NFL Draft. He quickly earned the starting left guard job in New Orleans and within a few years emerges as one of the league's best. Between 2018 and 2020, Peat was selected to three straight Pro Bowls despite missing 12 games spread over the three seasons. He signed a deal with the Las Vegas Raiders in the 2024 offseason and played in 15 games for the team last season. It remains to be seen how much high level football peat still has in him, but if he has any, he can be quite a boost for the team. Woodside has bounced around the league since 2018. He has completed four of seven passes for 34 yards and an interception during his career. Reaction Fans aren't all that convinced that signing Peat will do much help for the Steelers. Many seem to believe that Aaron Rodgers is just too old and washed-up to lead the team to the promised land: "Steelers still gonna be trash. Rodgers is washed," one user replied. "That's really gonna be the difference maker for Pittsburgh right here," another mocked. "Oh good. An old injury prone guard and a career backup QB," a third wrote. "Steelers are gonna be disappointed in Rodgers." Not every move is the difference between a Super Bowl and the first-overall draft pick though. Can the signing of Peat be a boon to the Steelers?
