Carson Steele - NFL News, Rumors, & Updates

Catches on with Philly's practice squad The Eagles signed Steele to the practice squad Monday.

Impact The Eagles waived Steele last Saturday. The running back was able to clear the extended cutdown day waivers and was promptly invited back to the team's practice squad as a free agent. Steele played in all three preseason games for the Eagles, logging 21 rush attempts for 58 yards as well as 14 receptions for 136 yards and two touchdowns. The 23-year-old will contribute to the practice squad as a reserve running back with dual-threat upside.

Dropped by Philly The Eagles waived Steele on Saturday, NFL reporter Jordan Schultz reports.

Impact Steele signed a future deal with the Eagles in January. The running back played in all three preseason games for the team, logging 21 rush attempts for 59 yards as well as 14 receptions for 136 yards and two touchdowns. The 23-year-old may not have made the 53-man roster, but if he clears Monday's waiver period without being claimed, there is a strong chance he will end up back with the Eagles on the practice squad.

Gets chance with Eagles Philadelphia signed Steele to a reserve/future contract Tuesday.

Impact Steele didn't log a single regular-season appearance in 2025, though he did spend time on Kansas City's practice squad. Next, the hybrid fullback/running back will get an opportunity to compete for a depth role in the Eagles' backfield this offseason.

Joins KC's practice squad Steele signed with Kansas City's practice squad Wednesday, Matt Derrick of ChiefsDigest.com reports.

Impact Steele failed to make the 53-man roster out of training camp but went unclaimed on waivers, so he'll stick with the Chiefs organization. He can contribute as either a running back or fullback in the backfield, but Steele isn't guaranteed to be the next man up if injuries strike, as Clyde Edwards-Helaire is also signing with Kansas City's practice squad.

Time up in Kansas City The Chiefs waived Steele on Tuesday, Matt Derrick of ChiefsDigest.com reports.

Impact Steele's opportunity with the Chiefs ends as the process of cutting down to a 53-man roster begins. As a rookie last season, Steele suited up for all 17 regular-season games and logged 56 carries for 183 yards (3.3 YPC) with zero touchdowns. He also secured seven of 11 targets for 22 yards and fumbled three times, losing two. The hybrid fullback/running back is a capable blocker in pass protection and can contribute on special teams, so he figures to draw interest as a practice squad candidate around the league.

Early impact as rookie Steele rushed 56 times for 183 yards and hauled in seven of his 11 targets for 26 yards during the 2025 regular season.

Impact Steele was immediately asked to contribute as a rookie, including a 17-cary effort against the Falcons in Week 3. However, his contributions waned as the season wore on following the return of Isiah Pacheco from a ribs injury and the addition of Kareem Hunt as a mid-season free-agent signing. Hunt and Samaje Perine were on one-year deals with the Chiefs, making the pair free agents ahead of the 2025 campaign. Even so, the front office will presumably add another couple of backs to the room during the offseason via free agency or the draft. Steele will likely need to earn his way up the depth chart behind Pacheco heading into next year.

Picks up 27 yards in Week 18 Steele rushed the ball eight times for 25 yards in Sunday's 38-0 loss to the Broncos. He added two receptions on two targets for two yards.

Impact The Chiefs sat Isiah Pacheco (coach's decision) while Samaje Perine drew only two touches, leaving most of the work out of the backfield to Steele. That didn't amount to much with all of Kansas City's top skill-position players sitting, as the team netted only 98 yards on offense while running just 33 plays. Steele has played primarily on special teams since Week 4, and that will almost certainly be his role throughout the team's postseason run.
