Sokol signed with the Steelers' practice squad Wednesday, Teresa Varley of the team's official site reports.
EDGE Analysis
Sokol failed to make the Bills' initial 53-man roster in late August but has now found a new home in Pittsburgh. The 29-year-old tight end last played with the Patriots in 2023, but failed to record a stat across 20 total snaps (14 offensive and six on special teams).

The Bills waived Sokol on Sunday.
EDGE Analysis
It's the second time in two weeks that the Bills let go of Sokol, who played in all three of Buffalo's preseason games and finished with one catch (on two targets) for two yards while adding a solo tackle. Assuming he clears waivers, Sokol will explore his next options and pursue signing with a team in need of depth at tight end, likely on the practice squad.

The Bills signed Sokol on Thursday.
EDGE Analysis
Just two days after waiving Sokol, Buffalo saw fit to bring Sokol back on board ahead of its second game of the preseason Sunday at Chicago. His spot on the team isn't set in stone moving forward though, and it would be surprising if any tight end other than Dalton Kincaid, Dawson Knox or Jackson Hawes remained on the Bills' active roster after cut downs later in August.

The Bills signed Sokol on Tuesday.
EDGE Analysis
The 29-year-old tight end has appeared in eight career regular-season contests but has never been targeted on 53 offensive snaps. He'll try to latch on as a deep reserve blocker.

Sokol signed with the Steelers' practice squad Wednesday.
EDGE Analysis
Sokol was with the team during training camp and spent a week on their practice squad in September before being cut. He'll now have another opportunity with the franchise. The Michigan State product has previously appeared in six NFL contests, all with the Patriots between the 2022 and 2023 seasons.

The Steelers cut Sokol from the practice squad Tuesday, Teresa Varley of the team's official site reports.
EDGE Analysis
Sokol spent training camp with Pittsburgh and resurfaced on the team's practice squad mid-September, but he wasn't elevated Week 3. The veteran tight end will now have to search for a similar depth role elsewhere in the league.

Sokol signed with the Steelers' practice squad Wednesday.
EDGE Analysis
Sokol spent training camp in Pittsburgh but he was unable to earn a spot on the active roster. He'll now get another chance with the franchise, which will allow him the opportunity to work his way to the 53-man roster.

Sokol was waived by the Steelers on Tuesday, Teresa Varley of the team's official site reports.
EDGE Analysis
Sokol caught on with the Steelers in late July after spending 2023 with the Patriots. Sokol failed to register a catch across three preseason games, and assuming he clears waivers, he'll explore his next options.

The Steelers signed Sokol to a contract Tuesday, Alan Saunders of SteelersNow.com reports.
EDGE Analysis
The move corresponds with Pittsburgh cutting wide receiver Marquez Callaway. Sokol was a member of the Patriots' practice squad in 2023 and appeared in the final three games of the regular season, playing 14 snaps on offense and six snaps on special teams. Sokol will look to crack the Steelers' 53-man roster as a depth tight end behind Pat Freiermuth and Darnell Washington.
