Pittsburgh Steelers evaluate Jaheim Bell's chances as tight end in 2026
Summary

Jaheim Bell is under evaluation as the Pittsburgh Steelers approach the 2026 NFL season. Currently on the roster bubble, he is competing for a spot as TE4 among tight ends. Bell, standing 6-foot-2 and weighing 241 pounds, has previous experience with the New England Patriots and Philadelphia Eagles before joining the Steelers in May 2026. The team's decision may be influenced by the presence of Riley Nowakowski, a fullback-tight end hybrid, which could impact Bell's prospects of making the final roster. The Steelers will continue to review their options leading up to final cuts.
