The Pittsburgh Steelers have released a player they just drafted due to the player having a major medical issue.

The Pittsburgh Steelers went into the 2025 NFL draft with a plan and stuck to it with all seven picks. They emphasized high-character players with athleticism on offense and physicality on defense. Here is the Steelers full list of draft picks for the draft.

The Steelers will bring four quarterbacks to training camp and if we assume Aaron Rodgers will end up being one of them, Will Howard bumps Thompson from the final 53-man roster.
