Calvin Anderson, backup tackle, was also considered for the left tackle position. Peat, who has primarily played guard since joining the Steelers, made 12 starts at left tackle for the Saints in 2023. On Sunday, he will be protecting a quarterback almost 42 years old who is recovering from a fracture in his left wrist.\n\n\n<blockquote class=\"wp-block-quote is-layout-flow wp-block-quote-is-layout-flow\"><p>I&#8217;m always ready to play or start.

Samuel provides the Steelers with greater depth at a position that has suffered recent injuries to starters Joey Porter Jr. (hip) and Darius Slay (concussion).\n\nSamuel, ranked as the number 14 free agent in the offseason, signed with the Steelers&#8217; practice squad on November 11, following off-season spinal fusion surgery.\n\n\n<blockquote class=\"wp-block-quote is-layout-flow wp-block-quote-is-layout-flow\"><p>I feel great.
