Former NFL first-rounder just got released, should Steelers pursue signing?
Former New York Giants first-rounder Evan Neal just became available for the Pittsburgh Steelers after his release from the Las Vegas Raiders.
The Las Vegas Raiders have released former New York Giants first-round draft pick Evan Neal, a move that presents an opportunity for the Pittsburgh Steelers. According to NFL insider Ari Meirov, Neal's availability could prove beneficial for Pittsburgh. The Raiders released Neal, who was on their practice squad, earlier today. Neal, a talented offensive tackle from Alabama, was the seventh overall pick in the first round of the 2022 NFL Draft.
Despite his initial struggles with the Giants, Neal transitioned to guard and showcased versatility in both offensive tackle and guard positions. With Pittsburgh's inconsistent offensive line, Neal could serve as both a valuable starter and a solid depth option. The Steelers would be wise to closely monitor this development and consider signing Neal to strengthen their defensive front.
