ESPN’s Adam Schefter is reporting that the Pittsburgh Steelers are releasing veteran tight end Jonnu Smith.
The Steelers acquired Smith last offseason, along with cornerback Jalen Ramsey, from the Miami Dolphins for safety Minkah Fitzpatrick.
Smith got to reunite with Arthur Smith, who was his offensive coordinator with the Tennessee Titans and head coach with the Atlanta Falcons.
The 2025 season was a disaster for Smith in Pittsburgh. He played 17 games, but started only seven, and his 222 yards receiving was a career worst.
Releasing Smith saves the Steelers $7 million. Their current cap space is now $51,643,582.
