With just days to go until the 2020 NFL draft, we are going to go through all of the Steelers positional units to review the current state of the roster, gauge draft need and talk about some approaches to addressing the need.
This time, let’s talk tight ends.
Roster
The Steelers currently have three tight ends on their roster. To everyone’s surprise, they signed Eric Ebron to a two-year contract in March. Ebron and Steelers vet Vance McDonald will be the starters.
The backup job belongs to Zach Gentry who was drafted in 2019. He has only appeared in four games and has one reception to his name.
