Top Juan Thornhill News

  • Juan Thornhill: Joins Jags' practice squad

    The Jaguars signed Thornhill to their practice squad Monday.

    The 30-year-old safety was dropped by the Steelers on Nov. 10 but has quickly found a new home in Jacksonville. Thornhill appeared in nine games for the Steelers this season, recording 38 total tackles and one pass defended across 313 defensive snaps. He could be elevated to the Jaguars' active roster and play a depth role in the team's secondary as the season progresses.

  • Juan Thornhill: Cut by Pittsburgh

    Thornhill was waived by the Steelers on Monday, Ian Rapoport of NFL Network reports.

    Thornhill has played in all nine contests with Pittsburgh this season, recording 38 total tackles (23 solo) and a pass defensed. The 30-year-old played sparingly in the last two contests though, as Jalen Ramsey has taken over as the team's starting free safety. Thornhill will now be subject to waivers, and if he goes unclaimed, he'll enter free agency.

  • Steelers' Juan Thornhill: Three tackles against Minnesota

    Thornhill recorded three tackles (two solo) in the Steelers' win over the Vikings on Sunday.

    DeShon Elliott and Chuck Clark started at safety for the Steelers against Minnesota, but Thornhill out-snapped Clark 50 to 31 behind Elliott's 100 percent playing-time clip. Through four games, Thornhill has recorded 25 tackles (14 solo), one pass breakup and one fumble recovery.

  • Steelers' Juan Thornhill: Takes back seat in loss

    Thornhill recorded six tackles (three solo) during Sunday's 21-14 win at New England.

    Jabrill Peppers saw his first defensive snaps of the season in Week 3, and they mostly came at the expense of Thornhill, who only played 26 of the Steelers' 71 defensive snaps. Things will only get complicated further when DeShon Elliott (knee) comes back into the fold, so Thornhill's role in Pittsburgh's defensive backfield looks like it might be on shaky ground as the season develops.

  • Steelers' Juan Thornhill: Records eight tackles in victory

    Thornhill recorded eight tackles (four solo) and one fumble recovery in the Steelers' win over the Jets on Sunday.

    While Thornhill didn't start the game, he did play 84 percent of the defensive snaps. With DeShon Elliott suffering a knee injury that already has him ruled out for Week 2 against Seattle, both Thornhill and Chuck Clark should see elevated playing time on the back end of Pittsburgh's defense.
