The Steelers signed Geathers last December after Brett Keisel suffered a muscle tear. Geathers never played a down for the Steelers, and was inactive during the games he was on the roster.
The Steelers are the 8th team the defensive end has been a part of in his 5 seasons in the NFL. Originally drafted by the Browns in 2010, he will get a chance to fight for a depth spot in camp this summer.
Geathers is 6’8″, 325 lbs. He’s the brother of former longtime Bengals defensive end Robert Geathers.
