Steelers awarded wide receiver Reilly
The Steelers were awarded free agent wide receiver Brandon Reilly off waivers, the team announced this afternoon.

Reilly was recently released by the Detroit Lions before being claimed by the Steelers. Reilly began his NFL career with the Buffalo Bills as an undrafted free agent in 2017 and also spent time on the Dallas Cowboys’ practice squad. He played collegiately at Nebraska.

To make room for Reilly, the Steelers waived cornerback Alexander Myres with a non-football illness designation. Myres was signed as an undrafted free agent earlier this year.

Non football illness designation? odd.

kind of figured he was gone soon. He had not been practicing...not sure what was going on with him

Interesting. Very interesting - I wish all the best to young Myres...

Probably, can't shake the Houston std's

doesn't look good for Holton who's been missing practice.

Coolie, it was reported that Myers has been suffering from a non-football related illness. Hope it’s nothing serious, was looking forward to seeing him on ST, as that was the reasoning for his priority street FA status with Colbert.

Health and healing his way. Never want bad to happen to anyone. I know Coolie is a grown man (or close to it) but thanks for enlighten me on his play. I hoped he'd make it but I'm glad he got a chance.





Salute the nation

Hope this illness isn’t serious stuff.

God speed Myers

Any coach will tell you, they have never had too much talent on their team.

If he's a Z he has a chance since Holton isn't practicing.
