The Pittsburgh Steelers are releasing veteran defensive tackle Montravius Adams, ESPN reported Monday.

Adams, 29, recorded one sack and 14 tackles in 11 games with the Steelers last season.

He has 2.5 sacks and 123 tackles in 96 games (25 starts) with the Green Bay Packers (2017-20), New Orleans Saints (2021) and Steelers (2021-24).

Adams would have carried a $3.12 million cap hit for 2025, according to Spotrac.

Pittsburgh picked two defensive tackles in the 2025 draft, selecting Oregon's Derrick Harmon in the first round (21st overall) and Iowa's Yahya Black in the fifth round.
