How Kevin Jobity Jr. went from an unlikely high school football player to the Steelers' 53-man roster
- Steelers surprise 53-man roster inclusion and rookie DL Kevin Jobity Jr. played soccer before switching to football. He said the foot quicks and reaction time he picked up playing soccer help him while playing defensive line. Notably, he says he supports Chelsea.
- There are tiers within undrafted rookies -- out of these 45 that made initial 53-man rosters, 15 of them got $200,000+ in guaranteed money and 27 in all got $100k+, almost like an eighth round with more guaranteed money than a seventh. What's even more impressive are those who got little or no guaranteed money and still made 53s: Ravens QB Joe Fagnano: $0 Chiefs T Kahlil Benson: $0 Patriots LB Khalil Jacobs: $0 Dolphins FB D.J. Herman: $0 Bucs LB Caden Fordham: $2,000 Commanders K Drew Stevens: $2,500 Chargers CB Rodney Shelley: $5,000 Chargers C Jacob Spomer: $10,000 Giants LS Ben Mann: $10,000 (@spotrac for contract figures) · Quoting Ryan Paganetti: All 45 UDFAs from the 2026 class who made an NFL initial 53-man roster: ARI: Wydett Williams Jr., S, Ole Miss ATL: Malcolm DeWalt IV, CB, Akron ATL: Jack Strand, QB, Minnesota State Moorhead BAL: Ethan Burke, OLB, Texas BAL: Joe Fagnano, QB, UConn CAR: Aaron Hall, DT, Duke CAR: Haynes King, QB, Georgia Tech CAR: Albert Reese IV, OT,…
