(TNS) — The Pittsburgh Steelers have re-signed versatile offensive lineman Max Scharping, according to the NFL Transaction Wire.

Scharping joined the Steelers in October of 2024 after injuries racking up along the offensive line. He can play both tackle spots and guard, though he projects more as guard depth than anywhere else with the Steelers.

When they signed Scharping, he was on the Washington Commanders’ practice squad. Scharping spent much of the season as the ninth offensive linemen, and the first team inactive.

A second-round pick in the 2019 NFL Draft out of Northern Illinois, Scharping has started 33 games in the NFL, many coming with the Houston Texans over his first three seasons in the NFL.

Scharping stayed with the Texans from 2019 to 2021, but a new regime came in, headed by Nick Caserio, a former Patriots executive. After disappointing in his opportunities, he was released after training camp in 2022. The Cincinnati Bengals would scoop him up off waivers, and Scharping spent the next two years with the Bengals.

Cincinnati did not extend him beyond 2023, and the Philadelphia Eagles signed Scharping in June, but he failed to make the final roster. After the Eagles did not add him to the practice squad, the Commanders signed him on August 28.
