Steelers Cut DBs Trevor Williams & John Battle

The Pittsburgh Steelers officially released DB Trevor Williams on Friday and waived DB John Battle.

Trevor Williams

Williams, 27, wound up signing a three-year, $1.62 million contract with the Chargers as an undrafted free agent out of Penn State back in 2016. He was unable to make the 53-man roster coming out of the preseason and was later signed to their practice squad. 

Williams re-signed with the Chargers as a restricted free agent last offseason but was waived from their injured reserve list. The Cardinals claimed him off waivers before releasing him in October. 

Williams was on and off of the Eagles’ roster last year before signing a futures contract with the Steelers this past January.  

In 2020, Williams appeared in two games and recorded three total tackles, one pass defense, and no interceptions.
