  "account": "The Pittsburgh Steelers have bolstered their wide receiver corps in preparation for their Week 8 game against the Cleveland Browns. Two new signings have been made to the team's active roster. Wide receiver Brandon Smith was signed from the practice squad, and Brandon Johnson was elevated from the practice squad to the active/inactive roster. However, Johnson will be returning to the practice squad after the game. Smith was recently elevated for three Steelers games this season and recorded two catches for 24 yards against the New Orleans Saints last week. Johnson, who has been elevated twice this season, has yet to record a catch this season.",
  "summary": "The Steelers sign one receiver, elevate another ahead of a big AFC North matchup.",
