Tuzar Skipper

Tuzar Skipper was a camp favorite and a preseason stud from 2019. He wowed during exhibition action with his ability to get after the quarterback consistently and make plays. Many fans were upset when he didn’t make Pittsburgh’s final 53-man roster, and the undrafted rookie later signed with the New York Giants.

After being let go from the Giants after just 6 games, Steelers fans were ecstatic when they signed him back. But the former undrafted outside linebacker may have already seen his time in the spotlight.

Pittsburgh used their 3rd round selection on Charlotte edge defender, Alex Highsmith, and the Steelers rarely keep more than four edge defenders on the roster. Ola Adeniyi is a younger player than Skipper and he has the inside track at making the team. I think there’s a good chance Skipper is let go once again.
