Steelers Announce Signing Ex-Eagles Player to Address Roster Weakness

One area of the roster where the Pittsburgh Steelers still lacked depth after the 2026 NFL Draft was tight end. That’s why two of the team’s six undrafted free agents this spring were tight ends. This week, the Steelers added another tight end — Jaheim Bell.

The team announced signing Bell on Monday.

“The Steelers signed tight end Jaheim Bell to a one-year contract,” wrote Steelers.com’s Teresa Varley.

“Bell was previously signed to the Steelers practice squad near the end of the 2025 season.”

Most recently, Bell was across Pennsylvania on the Philadelphia Eagles offseason roster. The Eagles waived Bell following the 2026 NFL Draft on April 28.

Bell was also with the Eagles during October last season. The tight end spent Week 18 and the NFL 2025-26 postseason on the Steelers practice squad.

Bell played in 15 games for the New England Patriots during 2024. He had two catches for 20 yards while playing 83 offensive snaps. Bell also lined up for 176 snaps on special teams.
