The Steelers have signed S Ross Ventrone to the practice squad. DB Brandon Jones, who was recently signed, has been released to make room for the signing. Ventrone was with the Steelers during training camp, but was cut during the final 53 roster cuts. He was in with the Arizona Cardinals for a work out just a couple days ago.

In unrelated news, the Steelers had DE Izaan Cross in for a tryout earlier in the week, but signed DE Hall Davis instead.
