Steelers sign safety Makari Paige to bolster depth

The Pittsburgh Steelers signed former Michigan safety Makari Paige earlier this week. The move addresses a need at the position ahead of voluntary OTAs and training camp.

Paige, listed at 6-foot-4 and 208 pounds, spent the 2025 preseason with the New York Giants. He appeared in 122 defensive snaps, playing single-high safety, in the box, and in the slot during that time. In his college career at Michigan, Paige recorded 135 tackles, two tackles for loss, one sack, and three interceptions across 53 games.
