Steelers Work Out Former Seahawks Defensive Tackle Amid Injury Crisis

The Seattle Seahawks have been active in reshaping their defensive line as they enter the 2025 NFL training camp, signing rookie Thor Griffith, a promising former Harvard standout, while parting ways with nose tackle Justin Rogers. Rogers, a seventh-round pick in 2024, had stints with the Cowboys and Bengals before being waived by Seattle, and was noted for his run-stopping ability despite some limitations. Meanwhile, former Seahawks fourth-round pick Cameron Young, who was waived due to a knee injury and later released by the Packers, is currently working out for the Pittsburgh Steelers amid their defensive tackle injury concerns. Young's workout follows a knee injury to Steelers' defensive tackle Esezi Otomewo, who is being evaluated for recovery. Seahawks general manager John Schneider is also exploring potential trade candidates like Romeo Doubs, Liam Eichenberg, and Ja'Lynn Polk to bolster the roster depth. Additionally, safety-cornerback Keydrain Calligan has impressed multiple NFL teams with his versatility and athleticism in pre-draft evaluations.
