It would appear that fullback Monte Pottenbaum’s time as a member of the Pittsburgh Steelers has come to an end after only a few weeks. The team announced they had placed Pottenbaum on the reserve/retired list. This move was presumably to make room on the roster for newly-signed inside linebacker Kwon Alexander.
The Steelers signed Pottenbaum as an undrafted free agent. With Connor Heyward assuming a duel role as a fullback and tight end this season we knew it was a longshot for Pottenbaum to make the team.
