Steelers sign another cornerback

The Pittsburgh Steelers have signed cornerback Terell Smith off the Washington Commanders' practice squad, according to Nick Farabaugh of PennLive .

This marks the second cornerback this week that the Steelers have poached from a team's practice squad. The Steelers signed veteran cornerback Sean Murphy-Bunting off the Tampa Bay Buccaneers' practice squad, as well.

Farabaugh reported that Smith was seen in Pittsburgh's locker room with a locker. With signing him off Washington's practice squad, the Steelers must keep him on their 53-man roster for at least three weeks. The same goes for Murphy-Bunting.

The Steelers are thin at cornerback right now with the Joey Porter Jr. trade and Jamel Dean dealing with an ankle injury.
