After an unexpected injury to one of Pittsburgh's active running backs, the Pittsburgh Steelers were left having to replace a key member of the special teams unit.
Seeing as few could fill the RB #3 role, they called upon recent practice squad signee Qadree Ollison.

Ollison played for the Panthers of Pittsburgh from 2014-2018, earning All-ACC honors during his tenure and overlapping with current Steelers QB Kenny Pickett. Ollison reminisced on his time with Pickett during college when he was signed and following the latest injury news he may have the chance to relive his college days in the stadium, but on an NFL field.
