Pittsburgh Steelers har frigivet quarterback/wide receiver John Rhys Plumlee, som tidligere har været tilknyttet holdet som udraftet free agent siden 2024. Den 25-årige spiller bekræftede sin afgang på sociale medier med en taknemmelig besked.
"Taknemmelig for min tid i Pittsburgh og Steelers-organisationen! Kan ikke vente med at se, hvad der kommer hernæst!"
Plumlee skrev kontrakt med Steelers i 2024 uden at blive draftet og fungerede blandt andet som fjerde quarterback under træningslejren. Derudover prøvede han kræfter med roller som wide receiver, kick returner og punt returner, inden han blev skåret fra inden sæsonstarten.
Efter en kort pause vendte Plumlee tilbage til Steelers den 29. oktober 2025, hvor han skrev kontrakt med practice squad. Efter sæsonens afslutning skrev han under på en futures kontrakt, hvilket sikrede ham en plads i organisationen frem mod den kommende sæson. Tidligere har Plumlee også været tilknyttet Jacksonville Jaguars og Seattle Seahawks.
