Steelers Release Derek Moye From Practice Squad, Send Richardson To IR

The Steelers have released everyone’s favorite underdog wide receiver Derek Moye from the practice squad today. The team also placed rookie CB Shaq Richardson on the practice squad IR list. Richardson’s injury hasn’t been officially disclosed.

With the 3 available roster spots, the team has signed DE Ethan Hemer, DB Jordan Sullen and OL Adam Gettis. Hemer was signed by the Steelers as an UDFA in May. The DE was with the team throughout training camp and survived the first round of cuts before ultimately being released at the end of August.

Gettis was drafted by the Redskins in the 5th round of the 2012 draft. The journeyman guard saw limited playing time in 2013 and was released by the Redskins during their first round of roster cuts this summer.

Jordan Sullen is a 6’0″, 200lb cornerback from Tulane. He signed a UDFA contract with the Broncos in May, but didn’t make the squad. He played in every preseason game for the Broncos.
