The Pittsburgh Steelers have released tight end Kevin Foelsch as part of their 11 cuts on Friday, the team announced. Foelsch joined the team after injuries, and was released once and then brought back.

Matthew Rooney, grandson of team founder Art Rooney, died at the age of 51, according to the Pittsburgh Tribune-Review. No cause of death has been released. Matthew's father, John Rooney, once owned 16 percent of the team but sold most of his stake to other Rooney family members in 2009. Matthew had no current role with the Steelers.

PITTSBURGH -- Pittsburgh Steelers cornerback Cory Trice is upbeat despite missing the entire preseason with a hamstring injury, and believes he could be back before Week 1.

Trice may face an uphill battle to survive cutdown day on August 26, as some suspect his availability concerns over the past two years make it difficult to justify a spot on the 53-man roster. For up-to-date Steelers coverage, follow us on X @TheSteelersWire and give our Facebook page a like.
