Steelers’ Free-Agent Return List: Who Should Come Back Besides Rodgers

As the draft nears, the Steelers weigh which of their 16 unsigned free agents to re-sign besides Aaron Rodgers. The strongest case is for OL Andrus Peat to bolster the line, with Brock Hoffman already added. Other potential re-signs include QB Skylar Thompson; safeties such as Kyle Dugger, Jaquan Brisker, Chuck Clark, and Jabrill Peppers; and DL options Daniel Ekuale, Dean Lowry, and Isaiahh Loudermilk (all coming off injuries) in the mix after Sebastian Joseph-Day’s addition. At WR, Scotty Miller and Marquez Valdes-Scantling remain options (Adam Thielen appears retired); Michael Pittman Jr. is on board, and Calvin Austin III has departed, leaving depth at receiver thin. The Steelers’ ongoing coaching overhaul and playoff drought frame a cautious, opportunistic approach to a few returns rather than wholesale churn.
