Steelers Trim Roster, Adding WR Levi Wentz While Releasing Carnell and Laros

The Pittsburgh Steelers may be in the midst of their offseason break, but roster management remains a priority for the team. On Monday, the Steelers announced the release of linebacker Daylan Carnell and punter Aidan Laron, subsequently signing wide receiver Levi Wentz to fill the open spots.

Wentz, who played at the University of Kansas in 2025, recorded 16 receptions for 258 yards and two touchdowns during his college career. Despite what his statistics suggest, his highlights showcase a player with considerable talent, hampered by a struggling Kansas offense that didn't optimize his potential.

Though Wentz's signing may not immediately grab headlines, he brings a notable threat as a receiver, particularly in gaining yards after the catch, thanks to his impressive acceleration. With uncertainty surrounding the depth of the Steelers' wide receiver lineup, Wentz could find himself vying for a roster spot during training camp.
