Steelers snag RB Godwin Igwebuike off Falcons practice squad

The Steelers signed running back Godwin Igwebuike off of the Falcons practice squad

The Pittsburgh Steelers signed running back Godwin Igwebuike off of the Atlanta Falcons practice squad on Wednesday afternoon.

Igwebuike was elevated for the Falcons’ Week 2 win over the Packers, but since he was still on the practice squad, the Steelers were allowed to sign him to their active roster.

With a practice squad spot available, Atlanta brought back running back Carlos Washington Jr. to fill the final vacancy.

The Falcons signed linebacker Milo Eifler to their practice squad and released wide receiver Mathew Sexton on Tuesday.

Have a look at the team’s updated 53-man roster, practice squad and depth chart heading into Sunday’s game against the Detroit Lions.
