The 2025 NFL Draft is in the books. But draft weekend is far from over. For the remainder of Saturday and into Sunday, the Pittsburgh Steelers will sign a handful of undrafted free agents to round out their roster and this year’s rookie class.
Below is our yearly tracker sharing the prospects the Steelers reportedly have signed to UDFA deals. Keep in mind nothing is official until announced by the team. Though rare, the free-for-all nature of the process occasionally causes a prospect to change commitments and pivot to another team.
Pittsburgh can be expected to sign an undrafted class of 6-8 players. The Steelers’ initial 2024 class consisted of five names.

NOTES*
Taylor measured in at 6017, 213 pounds and runs a 4.49 40-yard dash. In four years at Memphis, Taylor caught 163 passes for more than 2,300 yards and seven touchdowns. In 2024, Taylor hauled in 66 passes for 950 yard and in 2023, he crossed the 1,000-yard mark.
Thomas-Jones is reportedly receiving a $30,000 signing bonus, largest ever handed out by Pittsburgh to an UDFA. Jones caught 22 passes for 191 yards and three touchdowns last season for the Jaguars. At his Pro Day, he measured in at 6015, 250 pounds with 33 1/8-inch arms. He ran a 4.63 40-yard dash.
Castro is versatile and productive, recording 57 tackles (three for a loss) with two forced fumbles and one interception last season. Undersized and a poor tester, Castro weighed in at 5112, 203 pounds at the NFL Combine and dropped down to 197 pounds for his Pro Day. He ran a 4.59 at Indy with a 30.5-inch vertical.
Still, our scouting report talked up his play and we put a fourth round grade on him (written before his testing). Our report is below.
Pittsburgh showed interest in Williams at the East/West Shrine Bowl, measuring in at 6055, 314 pounds with 32 1/4-inch arms. An Alaska native, he played 40 games at the D-II level. Our scouting report, which gave him a draftable grade, is below.
