of one of their veteran defensive linemen.Daniel McCullers has spent the last five years with the team and Jeremy Fowler of ESPN.com reported on Thursday morning that he has signed a two-year deal to remain in Pittsburgh. Mike Garafolo of NFL Media reports that the deal is worth $2.75 million.McCullers joined the Steelers as a 2014 sixth-round pick and has spent the majority of his time as a reserve on the defensive line. He appeared in 15 games last season Dermontti Dawson Jersey , but was only in on 10.6 percent of the team’s defensive snaps. He also saw time on special teams and ended the year with five tackles and a sack.Leterrius Walton is the remaining free agent on the Pittsburgh defensive line. They’ve lost linebacker L.J. Fort to the Eagles as a free agent, but have added cornerback Steven Nelson and retained linebacker Anthony Chickillo this week. Chatter emerged in recent days that the Jets could trade running back Le'Veon Bell, either before the 2019 season or after it concludes. Coach Adam Gase was asked about the first possibility when meeting with reporters on Thursday, and he described it in two words.“That’s ridiculous,” Gase said.Gase pointed out that the question of whether he and former G.M.

What else can he be great at?”Pressed on whether the Jets overpaid for Bell, Gase said Merril Hoge Jersey , “No.” But he had to say that, regardless of what he truly believes. If he had said otherwise, the back page of the tabloids would have featured on Friday an image of Bell rolling in coins and Gase rolling his eyes and a double-entendre headline that may or may not have been funny.By the way, the Jets did overpay for Bell, because no one else was making offers in the same range as the Jets.
