According to PFN's James Larsen, the Steelers signed wide receiver Isaiah Winstead following a successful tryout earlier this week.

Winstead, who signed with the 49ers as an undrafted free agent in 2023, went viral after a highlight video he posted following the NFL Draft landed him a deal with San Francisco. He also spent time with the New York Jets in 2024, as well as in the UFL with the Arlington Renegades and, most recently, the Louisville Kings.

His best college season came in 2022, when Winstead earned All-AAC recognition for his incredible six-touchdown, 1,085-yard season at East Carolina.

At 26 years old, Winstead has a big opportunity ahead of him with the Steelers, especially with the preseason opener against the Green Bay Packers just around the corner.
