The Pittsburgh Steelers made several roster adjustments on June 15, signing rookie wide receiver Levi Wentz. Wentz, who went undrafted and previously signed with the Seattle Seahawks before being waived, played college football at Kansas, where he recorded 16 receptions for 258 yards and two touchdowns last season. In conjunction with Wentz's signing, the Steelers released linebacker Daylan Carnell and punter Aidan Laros. Carnell had transitioned to linebacker last year after five seasons at Missouri but did not appear in an NFL game. Laros was released just days after joining the team from the Tampa Bay Buccaneers.
