Steelers Re-Sign Stewart; Release Williams

The Steelers re-signed long snapper/linebacker Matt Stewart to their preseason roster, the team announced today. Financial terms of the one-year deal were not released.

Stewart (6-3, 236) signed with the Steelers this year as a free agent on June 7, but was released on July 30. He was originally drafted as a linebacker by the Atlanta Falcons in the fourth round of the 2001 NFL Draft out of Vanderbilt.

Weird time to sign a long snapper. I wonder if Warren is injured again.

Just to keep things straight....Wide receiver Isaiah Williams was the one cut ...not Linebacker Renauld Williams. I know...I know....."like it matters".

Just letting those who are keeping track...know who is still on the roster.

Isaiah Williams was cut?? Damn I was hoping he would of made the 53. Looks like Hine's is gonna waste a roster spot for another year now.:dance:

I was thinking Renaud Williams looked like he had a shot to be the 9th LB. Its either him or Sylvester IMO.

Is it safe to assume a knee is more likely to experience more swelling coming off a torn ACL?

I don't think he has a prayer against Sylvester.

Sylvester has been looking pretty impressive we should be set at linebacker for a few years with what we have and the up and coming rookies.

Now if you can only get your problems fixed at OL, DB, ST, and possibly WR, you'll be OK.

(Oh, and hope that Smith and Polamalu last an entire year, too)
