Steelers Officially Release Veteran Tight End Jonnu Smith

The Pittsburgh Steelers have officially released veteran tight end Jonnu Smith, a move that saves the team $7 million against the salary cap. Smith, who recorded 38 catches for 222 yards and two touchdowns in 17 games last season, is now exploring new opportunities as a free agent. The Los Angeles Chargers and Philadelphia Eagles have been identified as potential landing spots for the veteran as he looks to rebound from an underwhelming 2025 campaign.
