  • Ryan Watts: Released, retiring due to injury

    Watts (neck) was released by the Steelers on Monday and will discontinue playing football.

    Watts sustained a neck injury in Pittsburgh's final 2024 preseason game, per Brooke Pryor of ESPN.com, and it has been determined by team doctors, medical experts and Watts' representatives that it is in his best interest to end his NFL career. He was selected in the sixth round of the 2024 NFL Draft out of Texas and did not appear in a regular-season game for the Steelers.

  • Steelers' Ryan Watts: Gets placed on IR

    Pittsburgh placed Watts (undisclosed) on its injured reserve list Tuesday, Teresa Varley of the Steelers' official site reports.

    Because Watts does not have a designation to return, he'll have to sit out the entire 2024 season. The move opens up a spot on the 53-man roster for special teams ace Jalen Elliott.

  • Steelers' Ryan Watts: Sustains injury vs. Detroit

    Head coach Mike Tomlin told reporters that Watts (undisclosed) suffered a "stinger" in Saturday's 24-17 preseason loss to the Lions, Brooke Pryor of ESPN.com reports.

    Watts sustained the injury on the third-to-last play of the game. He finished the contest with three tackles (two solo). Watts is battling for a spot on the Steelers' 53-man roster in a depth role in the secondary.

  • Steelers' Ryan Watts: Corner help added in Pittsburgh

    The Steelers selected Watts in the sixth round of the 2024 NFL Draft, 195th overall.

    Watts is a rangy corner at just under 6-foot-3 with 34.5-inch arms. He started his career at Ohio State before transferring to his native state of Texas, where he attended UT-Austin and started for two seasons. He ran a 4.53 in the 40 at the combine and while his frame is interesting for a corner, being that upright can be a detriment without the requisite make-up speed. If nothing else, Watts helps a cornerback room that needed some help behind Joey Porter and Donte Jackson. There is some thought that if he doesn't stick at corner, Watts could move to safety.
