Steelers Sign Three To Practice Squad, Cut Two

The Steelers announced on Monday they have signed RB Ralph Webb, WR Quadree Henderson and WR Amara Darboh to the practice squad. 

In a corresponding move, the Steelers released LB Sutton Smith and WR Terry Wright. 

Here’s an updated look at Pittsburgh’s practice squad: 

1. S Marcus Allen
2. OL Derwin Gray
3. DL Henry Mondeaux
4. OL Patrick Morris
5. TE Christian Scotland-Williamson (International)
6. CB Alex Myres
7. OT Christian DiLauro
8. TE Kevin Rader
9. WR Amara Darboh
10. Quadree Henderson
11. RB Ralph Webb

Darboh, 25, is a former third-round pick of the Seahawks back in 2017. He was entering the third year of his four-year, $3.175 million contract when the Seahawks waived him coming out of the preseason last year.

The Patriots later claimed Darboh off of waivers. However, he lasted just a week in New England before he was waived with a failed physical designation.

Darboh’s contract was reinstated with Seattle and he reverted to their injured reserve. The Seahawks once again waived him and he later signed on to the Buccaneers’ practice squad a few weeks into the season. He was promoted to the active roster last month before being released a couple of weeks ago. 

In 2017, Darboh appeared in all 16 games for the Seahawks and caught eight passes for 71 yards receiving and no touchdowns.

Henderson, 23, wound up signing on with the Steelers as an undrafted free agent out of Pittsburgh back in 2018. He agreed to a three-year, $1.71 million contract but was, unfortunately, waived coming out of the preseason.

The Giants later signed Henderson to their practice squad before promoting him to their active roster. New York waived him back in April and he was later claimed by the Jets. 

The Jets waived Henderson back in August and he caught on with the Jaguars soon after. Jacksonville waived Henderson coming out of the preseason. He had a stint on the Panthers practice squad earlier this season. 

In 2018, Henderson appeared in five games for the Giants and totaled 112 kick return yards and 68 punt return yards.
