The Steelers placed Fehoko (arm/shoulder) on injured reserve Saturday, Aaron Wilson of KPRC 2 Houston reports.
EDGE Analysis
Fehoko was dealing with arm and shoulder injuries that forced him to leave Wednesday's practice. Now that he's been placed on IR, the 27-year-old will be forced to miss the entire 2024 season unless he reaches an injury settlement with Pittsburgh. His last NFL action was in 2022 with the Chargers, when he recorded 23 tackles (10 solo) in nine regular-season games.

Fehoko left Wednesday's practice with arm and shoulder injuries, Alan Saunders of SteelersNow.com reports.
EDGE Analysis
The extent of Fehoko's injuries are unknown, but this likely doesn't help his chances of making Pittsburgh's 53-man roster. The 27-year-old nose tackle is expected to continue competing for a depth spot on the Steelers' defensive line once he returns to full health.

Pittsburgh signed Fehoko from its practice squad to the active roster Wednesday, Ian Rapoport of NFL Network reports.
EDGE Analysis
For the second time this year, Fehoko has signed a deal to be a part of the Steelers' organization in some capacity. With six-time Pro Bowler Cameron Heyward (groin) recently having been placed on injured reserve, it makes sense for Pittsburgh to try to add some talent to its defensive line.

The Steelers signed Fehoko on Thursday, Aaron Wilson of KPRC 2 Houston reports.
EDGE Analysis
Fehoko is now slated to suit up for the Steelers for at least the 2023 campaign following Thursday's announcement. The 26-year-old originally joined the Chargers in 2020 as an undrafted free agent, and he's currently coming off his most productive season in which he tallied 26 tackles across 10 appearances. Fehoko is set to compete with Montravius Adams throughout the offseason for Pittsburgh's starting defensive tackle spot.

Fehoko was waived by the Chargers on Tuesday, Gilbert Manzano of The Orange County Register reports.
EDGE Analysis
The undrafted defensive lineman likely was one of the team's final cuts, as the Chargers opted to keep just five healthy bodies along the front three. Fehoko could be a solid candidate for the practice squad given his positive play throughout the preseason.

Fehoko has agreed to a deal with the Chargers.
EDGE Analysis
Fehoko went undrafted in the 2020 NFL Draft but will get a chance to make and impression in Los Angeles. The LSU product recorded 17 tackles (6.0 for loss) and a half sack during his senior season. He will now compete for a spot on the team's final roster.
