Jacoby Windmon obtiene una tercera oportunidad con los Pittsburgh Steelers

El apoyador Jacoby Windmon regresa a los Pittsburgh Steelers para una tercera oportunidad tras haber pasado por los Carolina Panthers y la UFL.

Windmon firmó inicialmente con los Steelers en 2024 como agente libre no reclutado proveniente de Michigan State. Pasó un tiempo en el equipo de prácticas antes de que los Panthers lo ficharan para su plantilla activa de 53 jugadores.

En ocho partidos con Carolina, registró 22 tacleadas, una tacleada para pérdida de yardas, 1.5 capturas y dos pases defendidos. Los Steelers lo trajeron de vuelta el pasado octubre por un breve periodo.

Después de ser dado de baja por los Panthers en mayo, Windmon jugó en la UFL esta primavera. Ahora está listo para reportarse en Latrobe para una nueva oportunidad con Pittsburgh.

"Estoy muy emocionado. Es otra oportunidad para salir ahí fuera y jugar al fútbol americano", declaró Windmon a través de WILX News 10. "Agradezco a los entrenadores por darme la oportunidad".
