The Steelers signed Colletto to their practice squad on Monday, Teresa Varley of the team's official site reports.
Colletto spent the early part of the campaign on San Francisco's practice squad before being released last Wednesday. It didn't take him long to find a new team, as he'll now look to make an impression with Pittsburgh. The rookie fullback wasn't taken in the 2023 draft after making the All-Pac 12 First Team as a senior last year, when he scored six touchdowns on the ground while converting 27 carries into 103 yards and three catches into 46 yards over 11 games.

Jack Colletto: Cut by 49ers
Rotowire
The 49ers waived Colletto on Tuesday, Eric Branch of the San Francisco Chronicle reports.
Colletto signed with the 49ers in May as an undrafted free agent and had the opportunity to learn from one of the best fullbacks in the game as Kyle Juszczyk's apprentice. With the latter being inked on the roster, and the unlikeliness of San Francisco keeping two fullbacks through final cuts, this was always the rookie's likely destination. Still, a practice squad opportunity in his future would not be surprising.
