Rodney Williams: Let go by Pittsburgh
The Steelers waived Williams on Tuesday, Teresa Varley of the team's official site reports.
Williams signed to the Steelers' practice squad at the end of August after failing to make the 53-man roster at the end of training camp. However, he was added to the 53-man roster Sept. 18, and across his six regular-season appearances between Week 3 and 8, Williams played 104 snaps on special teams and five on offense. Assuming he clears waivers, Williams will look to catch on with a team in need of a tight end who can contribute on special teams.

Steelers' Rodney Williams: Gets active roster spot
Williams was signed to the Steelers' 53-man roster from their practice squad Wednesday, Teresa Varley of the team's official site reports.
Williams has been a member of the Steelers' franchise for the majority of the last two seasons, spending much of 2022 on the practice squad, while suiting up for 13 regular-season games in 2023. However, those games didn't lead to much offensive production as he saw just two targets and no catches. With MyCole Pruitt (knee) currently iffy for Week 3, Williams may see himself on the field again Sunday against the Chargers.

Williams failed to make the Steelers' initial 53-man roster Tuesday, but he's sticking around in Pittsburgh after signing with the team's practice squad Thursday. The UT Martin product played 186 special-teams snaps across 13 outings with the Steelers last season, so he could definitely be elevated to the active roster at some point this year.

Williams is dealing with AC sprain that occurred on a diving catch attempt during practice, Alan Saunders of SteelersNow.com reports.
Steelers head coach Mike Tomlin indicated Saturday that Williams will be out for "days," so the tight end could miss numerous practices and may not be ready for Pittsburgh's first preseason contest Aug. 9 versus Houston. Williams got into 13 regular-season contests with the Steelers last year but didn't log any catches and played primarily on special teams.

Steelers' Rodney Williams: Getting scant playing time
Williams went without a target while playing five of the Steelers' 61 snaps on offense in Sunday's 24-10 loss to the Cardinals.
Williams has been active for each of Pittsburgh's last eight games but hasn't played more than 12 snaps on offense in any contest. He'll likely be in store for only limited playing time while fellow tight ends Pat Freiermuth, Darnell Washington and Connor Heyward are available.

Steelers' Rodney Williams: Joins active roster
Williams was signed from the practice squad to the active roster Wednesday, Teresa Varley of the team's official site reports.
Williams spent much of 2022 with Pittsburgh after going undrafted out of UT Martin and was with the team again during training camp and ultimately remained as a member of the practice squad. The 25-year-old has yet to play in an NFL game, but that is likely to change Sunday against the Ravens with his addition to the 53-man roster and Pat Freiermuth (hamstring) considered doubtful for the matchup.
