Adam Schefter reports that the Saints are signing former Steelers LB Anthony Chickillo to a one-year contract on Thursday.
Chickillo, 27, is a former sixth-round pick of the Steelers back in 2015. He was waived at the start of the 2015 season and later signed to the team’s practice squad.
From there, Chickillo was promoted to the Steelers’ active roster a few weeks into the 2015 season. Chickillo signed a two-year, $8 million extension with the Steelers last year.
The Steelers released Chickillo back in March.
In 2019, Chickillo appeared in 11 games for the Steelers and recorded 15 tackles and a half sack.
