Steelers Sign 8 UDFAs

May 2nd, 2021 at 1:20pm CST by Zachary Links

The Steelers drafted nine players over the weekend, but they weren’t done shopping. On Sunday, the Steelers announced the signings of eight undrafted free agents:

WR Rico Bussey (Hawaii)
WR Isaiah McKoy (Kent State)
S Lamont Wade (Penn State)
S Donovan Stiner (Florida)
CB Shakur Brown (Michigan State)
CB Mark Gilbert (Duke)
LB Jamar Watson (Kentucky)
LB Calvin Bundage (Oklahoma State)

Brown is among the more notable players in this bunch. After earning first-team All-Big Ten honors, Brown declared early with the expectation that’d be selected in Round 4 or 5. Instead, he watched as 250+ players heard their names called. Still, he’s likely secured a better-than-average UDFA signing bonus from the Steelers. Last year, Brown notched five interceptions in just seven games. For his Spartan career, Brown finished with 54 stops, two tackles for a loss, two sacks, 16 pass defenses, and one touchdown across 26 games.
