John Malecki Scheduled To Workout For Chiefs

According to Aaron Wilson of the Baltimore Sun, John Malecki has a workout scheduled with the Kansas City Chiefs. Malecki was released a day after making the 53 man roster so the team could sign offensive lineman Cody Wallace.

Malecki was a local kid who grew up in western PA, and played on the offensive line at Pitt. After bouncing around from practice squad to practice squad, he landed with the Steelers. Here’s what the former Steelers C/G told the Tribune about his time with the Steelers earlier this week.

“I got a long-shot, small opportunity when I first got to the Steelers, and they gave me every chance that they could to make that team,” Malecki said. “It was truly a humbling and a really great circumstance for me, being a local guy and whatnot. I really had a fun time the last couple years, even when it was bouncing up and down off the practice squad or whatever.

“It’s every kid’s dream around Pittsburgh to be a Steeler, I guess, and I got that opportunity to play on the field last season. It was pretty cool, and it’s been really good to me.”
