On Tuesday the Tampa Bay Buccaneers claimed Gilreath off waivers and signed him to their 53 man roster. The Steelers were likely hoping that Gilreath would clear waivers so that he could be signed back to their practice squad today. The team currently has two spots open on the practice squad as wide receiver Toney Clemons was signed away by the Jacksonville Jaguars on Monday. Gilreath, who started the season on the Steelers Read more [...] Tue, 27 Nov 2012 17:41:43 -0500 http://network.yardbarker.com/nfl/article_external/buccaneers_claim_wr_david_gilreath_off_waivers_from_steelers/12308035 http://network.yardbarker.com/nfl/article_external/buccaneers_claim_wr_david_gilreath_off_waivers_from_steelers/12308035 Buccaneers Claim WR David Gilreath Off Waivers From Steelers http://www.yardbarker.com/nfl/articles/buccaneers_claim_wr_david_gilreath_off_waivers_from_steelers/12308035 http://www.yardbarker.com/images/yb_logo_square_grey.png The Pittsburgh Steelers have one less wide receiver on their practice squad right now as the Jacksonville Jaguars signed Toney Clemons to their 53 man roster today. Clemons was drafted by the Steelers as their first of four seventh-round picks (231st overall) of the 2012 NFL Draft out of Colorado. The rookie registered just one catch for 14 yards during the preseason for the Steelers in limited action after having a hard time catching the ball during training camp. The Steelers will now have to fill the roster spot created by the loss of Clemons on Tuesday and it very well could be guard Read more [...] Mon, 26 Nov 2012 15:51:10 -0500 http://network.yardbarker.com/nfl/article_external/jaguars_sign_wr_toney_clemons_off_of_steelers_practice_squad/12298615 http://network.yardbarker.com/nfl/article_external/jaguars_sign_wr_toney_clemons_off_of_steelers_practice_squad/12298615 Jaguars Sign WR Toney Clemons Off Of Steelers Practice Squad http://www.yardbarker.com/nfl/articles/jaguars_sign_wr_toney_clemons_off_of_steelers_practice_squad/12298615 http://www.yardbarker.com/images/yb_logo_square_grey.png The Pittsburgh Steelers signed eight players to their practice squad Saturday, a day after each player failed to make the final 53-man roster.

Clemons was a seventh-round draft choice this spring. This is the second straight season on the practice squad for Cromartie-Smith. Gilreath played well during the preseason, catching five passes for 78 yards.

Signed today were guard Ryan Lee, linebacker Marshall McFadden, cornerback Josh Victorian, safety Damon Cromartie-Smith, cornerback Terrence Frederick, wide receiver David Gilreath, wide receiver Toney Clemons tight end Jamie McCoy and guard John Malecki. Lee had a great preseason at left guard albeit late in the games that he played in.

The 7 play game winning drive was led by fourth string quarterback Jerrod Johnson, who was a perfect 3-for-3 passing on the drive for 59 yards, as he connected with David Gilreath, Justin Peelle and Toney Clemons. The drive also overcame 3 penalties.

Player Notes: Quarterback Ben Roethlisberger only played one series, 15 plays, as did center Maurkice Pouncey. Running back Isaac Redman and tight end Heath Miller also played only on the opening drive as well. It should be noted that wide receiver Derrick Williams appears to be ahead of Toney Clemons in the battle for the 5th wide receiver spot, as Williams entered the game before Clemons did.

Adams joins Alameda Ta'amu, Chris Rainey and Toney Clemons as draft picks signed thus far. There was speculation that Adams would have part or all of his signing bonus deferred as part of the stipulations agreed to prior to the draft for Adams to get back on the Steelers draft board, but Bouchette states that was never a consideration. The financial details of the four year deal for Adams have not been released, but it is expected to total Read more [...] Tue, 08 May 2012 22:06:02 -0400 http://network.yardbarker.com/nfl/article_external/steelers_sign_2nd_round_draft_pick_mike_adams/10749620 http://network.yardbarker.com/nfl/article_external/steelers_sign_2nd_round_draft_pick_mike_adams/10749620 Steelers Sign 2nd Round Draft Pick Mike Adams http://www.yardbarker.com/nfl/articles/steelers_sign_2nd_round_draft_pick_mike_adams/10749620 http://www.yardbarker.com/images/yb_logo_square_grey.png The Steelers have signed their 3rd of nine draft picks.  WR Toney Clemons from Colorado one of the teams 7th round picks signed his deal today.  The deal was for 4 years just like all the other rookie contracts. Clemons is a kid who has never had stability in his football life.  He was in two different programs in college.  He transferred from Michigan to Colorado.  Then at Colorado he had a coaching change.  This kid just needs stability.  He has the talent and the athleticism to be goo. Clemons has a good shot to make this team.  The Steelers keep 5 and sometimes 6 receivers on the roster.  They have 4 set in stone with Wallace, Brown, Sanders and Cotchery.  Clemons will be fighting it out with guys like Derrick Williams, Marquis Maze and Connor Dixon.  That is for the fifth spot.  If the Steelers keep 6 he should make this team.

Terms of the deal were not disclosed. The Steelers chose the 6-foot-2, 210-pound Clemons with the 231st overall pick to give the team needed depth at wide receiver.

Pittsburgh is down to four wide receivers on the roster following the release of Hines Ward. Clemons will compete for a spot behind Mike Wallace, Antonio Brown, Emmanuel Sanders and Jerricho Cotchery. Wide receivers coach Scottie Montgomery says the Steelers like Clemons' size. He is now the tallest receiver on the team.

Chances are, you’re a good player and hey, you’ve been drafted, but there is also the very real possibility that you won’t make NFL teams’ final roster let alone see much of the field. For Toney Clemons and Terrence Frederick, this is the reality they face as seventh round selections of the Pittsburgh Steelers. It’s difficult enough to make an NFL team but when you have the players in front of you like the Steelers do it can get even tougher. For Clemons, a former Pittsburgh-Area product who originally went to Michigan before transferring to Colorado, this is exactly the scenario he is facing. Mike Wallace, Antonio Brown, Jerricho  Cotchery and Emmanuel Sanders already sit in front of him on the depth chart and have way more experience. That doesn’t mean Clemons has any plans to just sit back and wait for his release papers this summer. The good news for the 6’2” 190lbs Clemon...
