The Pittsburgh Steelers signed veteran wide receiver Robert Woods to a one-year contract on Thursday.

Terms were not announced, but NFL Network reported the deal is worth $2 million.

Woods, who turned 33 on April 10, has played for four different NFL teams since the Buffalo Bills selected him in the second round of the 2013 draft out of Southern California.


He has 683 career receptions for 8,233 yards and 38 touchdowns, as well as 75 carries for 514 yards and five scores in 171 games (145 starts) over 12 seasons for the Bills (2013-16), Los Angeles Rams (2017-21), Tennessee Titans (2022) and Houston Texans (2023-24).

Woods also 42 catches for 449 yards and one TD in 10 playoff games (seven starts).

Last season, he played 15 regular-season games for the Texans (four starts) and caught 20 of 30 targets for 203 yards, a 10.2 average. He has averaged 12.1 yards per catch for his career.

The Steelers' wide receivers room also includes George Pickens, Calvin Austin Jr., Scotty Miller, Roman Wilson and two-time Pro Bowl selection D.K. Metcalf, acquired in March in a trade with the Seattle Seahawks.
