Steelers Re-Sign WR Quez Watkins to Practice Squad – Pittsburgh Tracker

AUGUST 31 – WATKINS – Despite failing to make the Pittsburgh Steelers 53-man roster this offseason, veteran receiver Quez Watkins will remain with the team as a practice squad member.

The former Philadelphia Eagles receiver signed with the Steelers back in April after spending his first four seasons with the other Pennsylvania NFL team. In four seasons with the Eagles, Watkins played in 49 games, totaling 1,249 yards and six touchdowns on 98 receptions.

AUGUST 31 – PRACTICE SQUAD—While the 53-man roster was just recently set, that doesn’t mean teams will stop making moves ahead of the regular season kickoff. For the Pittsburgh Steelers, the most recent additions have been made to the practice squad.

According to ESPN’s Adam Schefter, the Steelers have added a trio of veterans. The Steelers added former Philadelphia Eagles running back Boston Scott, ex-Los Angeles Rams receiver Ben Skowronek, and former Denver Broncos receiver Brandon Johnson.

Seeing the Steelers double up on receiver reinforcements isn’t surprising, considering it is still arguably the team’s biggest remaining need heading into the season. This makes it seem like a real possibility that one or both Skowronek and Johnson find themselves called up to the 53-man roster at some point.
