The Pittsburgh Steelers officially announced the organization signed six undrafted free agents – three defensive players, two on offense, and one special teamer.

The Steelers signed defensive lineman Kevin Jobity Jr. (Syracuse), linebacker Dylan Carnell (Missouri), defensive back Devan Boykin (Indiana), plus tight ends Lake McRee (USC) and Charon Metayer (Arizona State). The team also signed Kansas kicker Laith Marjan.

Jobity Jr. closed his college career (38 games) with 83 tackles, 20 tackles for loss, and 10 sacks.  Carnell started 38 of his 56 career games and was a splash player in college. He recorded 174 tackles, 19.5 tackles for loss, 29 passes defended, five interceptions, forced four fumbles, and recovered three.  Boykin started 11 of the 16 games he played in for the 2025 national champions, totaling 59 tackles, six tackles for loss, and two picks.

McRee caught 30 of his 97 receptions during his senior year and totaled 1,154 yards and seven touchdowns. Metayer caught 94 passes for 971 yards and 14 touchdowns over four seasons, his last two at ASU. Marjan converted 14-of-17 field goals and was a perfect 40-40 on extra points for the Jayhawks. Marjan was named a Lou Groza Award semifinalist twice in his career.
