- The team also targets multiple offensive linemen and defensive players, including Gennings Dunker (OG), Darrell Jackson (DT), Isaiah World (OT), and Kyle Louis (LB), to bolster depth and address key positions.
- The draft concludes with the selection of cornerback Ephesians Prysock to strengthen the secondary, highlighting the Steelers' focus on building a versatile and competitive roster under new management.
