The Steelers did not tender contract offers to their three restricted free agents: Center Ryan McCollum, outside linebacker Jeremiah Moon and punter Corliss Waitman.
All three are now unrestricted free agents, able to sign with any team.
The Steelers signed punter Cam Johnston to a one-year contract on Tuesday, signaling the potential for Waitman to not be tendered. McCollum's been a fine backup center, so it'll be interesting to see if there's a chance for a reunion, though Pat Meyer was the one who pounded the table to keep McCollum on the roster previously, so maybe the coaching staff changes will affect that. As for Moon, the Steelers' outside linebacker room is full, and the cheapest tender to any RFA is worth $3.52 million, making it a pretty easy decision to move on from Moon.
