The Pittsburgh Steelers have added receiver depth less than 24 hours after rookie Roman Wilson left training camp practice on a cart. The Steelers announced July 31 that they signed wide receiver Tarik Black to their 90-man roster.
In a corresponding move, the Steelers released defensive lineman Jonathan Marshall.
Black last played in an NFL regular season game for the New York Jets during the 2021 season.
The Black signing comes after Wilson exited practice July 30 with an ankle injury. ESPN’s Jeremy Fowler reported the injury “does not appear serious” but that the team called Wilson “week-to-week.”
“Sources classify Steelers WR Roman Wilson, who was carted off with an ankle injury, as week-to-week and that he’ll be ‘OK,’” wrote Fowler. “So, he could miss some time, but the injury does not appear serious.”
