According to Mike Garafolo, the Steelers are signing WR Denzel Mims to the practice squad.
Jordan Schultz reports the Steelers are also signing former Lions OT Obinna Eze to the unit.
Pittsburgh will need to make two corresponding moves from a practice squad that now includes:
Mims, 25, was selected with the No. 59 overall pick in the 2020 NFL Draft by the Jets out of Baylor. He was in the final year of his four-year, $5,433,700 rookie contract that includes a $1,511,782 signing bonus when the Jets traded Mims to Detroit in August for a conditional late-round pick swap.
However, Mims was cut with an injury designation.
In 2021, Mims appeared in 11 games for the Jets and caught eight passes for 133 yards receiving and no touchdowns.
