The Pittsburgh Steelers are continuing preparations for tomorrow's showdown down south with the Atlanta Falcons, and ahead of the matchup, they've announced a series of roster moves.

According to NFL reporter Brooke Pryor, the Steelers have placed cornerback Ahkello Witherspoon on Injured Reserve, while also activating rookie DE DeMarvin Leal from IR.

"I am ready to do whatever it is," said Leal after returning to practice. "I am hungry."

Leal, who was selected in the third-round of the 2022 NFL Draft out of Texas A & M by the Steelers, recorded 8.5 sacks and 12.5 tackles for a loss last season with the Aggies while starting 12 games. This season in five games for the Steelers, Leal has nine tackles, including five solo stops.
