Pittsburgh Steelers released out of Linebacker Preston Smith, the band announced on Friday. Smith was sold by Steelers Green Bay Packers in exchange for choosing the seventh round in the 2025 project on the date of trade in October.
Smith, who turns 33 in November, produced 2.0 bags, eight pressure and recovery in eight regular matches of the regular season and 161 defense snaps after Steelers. He was a fit scratch during two of the last three matches of the team, including Play -Ff Steelers from Baltimore Ravens.
Smith was to earn $ 12 million of basic salary in 2025. Steelers will pristine his whole hat worth $ 13.4 million for the band’s books on 2025 and $ 14.1 million more for 2026.
Packers will continue to count $ 9.88 million per Smith’s hat in the form of dead money in 2025. His signed bonus accelerated into the band’s cap on 2025, when Packers exchanged him to Pittsburgh.
Blacksmith. WHO signed as a free agent in Green Bay in 2019, he played in 91 matches of the regular season for Packers in six seasons. He produced 44.0 bags, 42 fights for losses and 96 hits of the playmaker during his stay in Green Bay. Smith also appeared in seven matches after the season, producing 4.5 bags and 10 hits of the playmaker.
If Steelers want to pristine more space for 2025, releasing a former defensive liner Packers Dean Lowry – and saving $ 2.5 million – this is another option.
