The Pittsburgh Steelers have elevated two players to the 53-man roster ahead of Sunday's game vs. Baltimore.
On of them is a name that had a career resurgence in Houston last week: Punter Brad Wing.
But the other is a man looking to finally show up on a Steelers Sunday:
This is the second straight week that Wing was elevated, also playing last week against the Houston Texans. Wing punted five times in that game with a 40.8-yard net average, with a long of 52 yards and one inside the 20-yard line.
McCollum was with the Steelers in training camp, but released prior to the start of the season. He was signed to the practice squad heading into the team's Week 2 game against the Browns game. McCollum also spent the 2022 season on the Steelers practice squad.
McCollum was originally claimed by the Steelers off waivers from the Detroit Lions during training camp in 2022. McCollum has spent time with the Houston Texans, Detroit Lions and Steelers, playing in 13 games, with one start, during his three-year career.

And while McCollum won't start, it will still be the first time he's apart of the gameday roster for Pittsburgh, surely making it a career milestone for the former undrafted free agent out of Texas A&M.
