Pittsburgh’s practice squad now includes:

Fitzpatrick, 25, was picked at No. 109 overall out of Louisville. He was entering the first year of his four-year, $4.3 million rookie contract and was set to earn a base salary of $660,000 when the Titans waived him coming out of the preseason.
Tennessee later re-signed him to their practice squad. He bounced back and forth between the practice squad and active roster over his first two seasons before the Steelers signed him away to a futures deal in 2023.
Pittsburgh cut Fitzpatrick coming out of the preseason and he’s bounced back and forth between the roster and practice squad so far this season.
In 2022, Fitzpatrick has appeared in one game for the Steelers but has yet to catch a pass.
