The Pittsburgh Steelers agreed to contracts with 10 undrafted free brokers on the conclusion of the crew’s 2025 rookie minicamp and all of them have since gone on to signal. With these 10 contracts now filed with the NFLPA, I can now go alongside the small print, due to the NFLPA and Over the Cap. The ten undrafted gamers signed this yr have been TE/FB DJ Thomas-Jones, WR Roc Taylor, G Aiden Williams, S Sebastian Castro, TE JJ Galbreath, Ok Ben Sauls, WR Ke’Shawn Williams, DL Blake Mangelson, RB Max Hurleman, and OT Gareth Warren.
As standard, the ten undrafted free agent signed three-year contracts. Moreover, all 10 have minimal base salaries of their three-year contracts with none of that cash being assured.
The one assured cash given to any of the undrafted gamers signed this yr got here within the type of signing bonuses, which can also be not shocking. Thomas-Jones, Taylor, and Williams obtained the very best signing bonuses of the ten gamers at $30,000. Castro was subsequent with a $25,000 signing bonus. Galbreath and Sauls every obtained a $20,000 signing bonus and they’re adopted by Williams at $10,000 and Mangelson at $3,000.
