Sciba was cut from the Steelers' practice squad Tuesday, Teresa Varley of the team's official site reports.
EDGE Analysis
Sciba filled in for Chris Boswell in Week 8 while Boswell was out due to a groin injury, and he connected on both of his field-goal attempts. With the team coming off a Week 9 bye, it appears Boswell may be ready to return Sunday against the Saints, since the team is letting Sciba go.

Sciba reverted to the Steelers' practice squad Monday, per the NFL's official transaction log.
EDGE Analysis
Sciba stepped up to handle the Steelers kicking duties Sunday against Eagles, as Chris Boswell was out due to a groin injury. The 22-year old made both of his field-goal attempts, while also making his lone PAT. With the Steelers now on a bye and Boswell having an extra week to heal, it's unlikely Sciba will need to be called upon the next time the Steelers play.

Sciba converted both of his field-goal attempts while making his lone extra-point try during the Steelers' 35-13 loss to the Eagles on Sunday.
EDGE Analysis
Sciba was elevated from the Steelers' practice squad ahead of Sunday's Week 8 matchup, and he converted all three of his kicks during his first taste of regular-season action in the NFL. The Steelers have a Week 9 bye, which will give Chris Boswell (groin) additional time to recover prior to the team's matchup against the Saints on Nov. 13. If Boswell is available in Week 10, Sciba will presumably head back to the practice squad.

Sciba will join the Steelers on Saturday and is expected to kick in the Week 8 matchup against the Eagles with Chris Boswell (groin) out, Alan Saunders of PittsburghSportsNow.com reports.
EDGE Analysis
Sciba was on the team's roster during the preseason, but he ultimately did not rejoin the team via the practice squad. The undrafted free agent from Wake Forest made 23 of his 25 field-goal attempts in college and converted all 65 of his extra-point tries and now lands in an offense that has attempted the sixth-most field goals in 2022.

The Steelers waived Sciba on Tuesday, Brooke Pryor of ESPN.com reports.
EDGE Analysis
Sciba was signed by the Steelers as an undrafted free agent out of Wake Forest, where he made 23 of 25 field-goal attempts and all 65 of his extra points. However, as expected, he lost the kicking battle to incumbent starter Chris Boswell.

Sciba signed with the Steelers as an undrafted free agent Monday.
EDGE Analysis
Sciba connected on 23 of 25 field-goal attempts and made all 65 of his extra-point attempts last season for Wake Forest, while leading the ACC in points. Although it's unlikely he would be able to unseat Chris Boswell as the Steelers' permanent kicker, Sciba could earn himself a spot on the practice squad. Sciba's chances have been aided by the team cutting kicker Sam Sloman in a corresponding move.
