Gentry, 26, was a fifth-round pick by the Steelers out of Michigan back in 2019. He played out his four-year rookie contract worth $2,864,460 and opted to return to Pittsburgh for another season.

However, the Steelers cut him coming out of the preseason.  

In 2022, Gentry appeared in all 17 games for the Steelers and caught 19 passes for 132 yards and no touchdowns.
