Steelers RB Kaleb Johnson faces uncertain future ahead of roster cuts

Pittsburgh Steelers running back Kaleb Johnson is reportedly on the roster bubble as cuts approach this Sunday. Drafted in the third round of the 2025 NFL Draft, Johnson has struggled to make an impact during his rookie season under head coach Mike McCarthy. If released, he could attract interest from other teams, including the Cincinnati Bengals, who reportedly liked Johnson in the draft and may seek to boost their running back depth. Despite a productive college career at Iowa, concerns over his performance against NFL defenders have surfaced.
