The Pittsburgh Steelers are releasing quarterback/wide receiver John Rhys Plumlee, Aaron Wilson reports. Plumlee signed with the Steelers as an undrafted free agent following the 2024 NFL Draft out of UCF, where he accounted for 20 total touchdowns in his final collegiate season. Plumlee has also spent time with the Jacksonville Jaguars and Seattle Seahawks.
It’s been an eventful morning for the Steelers, who also put the right of first refusal tag on Aaron Rodgers. Rodgers is still allowed to sign
with another team, but only up until July 22. If he reaches that date and is still unsigned, he can only sign with the Steelers.
Pittsburgh will begin OTAs on May 18.
