Steelers Place DB Miles Killebrew On Injured Reserve

Killebrew suffered a non-contact knee injury last week, so this move was expected. 

Killebrew, 32, is a former fourth-round pick by the Lions in the 2016 NFL Draft. He finished his four-year rookie contract before electing to re-sign with Detroit in 2020 on a one-year, $2 million contract. 

The Steelers signed him to a one-year contract in 2022. He later agreed to a two-year, $4 million contract with Pittsburgh in 2022 before re-signing with the team once again on a two-year, $6.5 million contract in March of 2025.

In 2025, Killebrew has appeared in five games for the Steelers and recorded five tackles.
