Pittsburgh Steelers insider Mark Kaboly reported the Steelers signed former Dallas Cowboys interior lineman Brock Hoffman.
The Pittsburgh Steelers are signing interior lineman Brock Hoffman after all.
NFL insider Mark Kaboly reported late Friday night the Steelers agreed to a 1-year deal with the former Dallas Cowboys lineman. Hoffman started seven games in each of the past two seasons with Dallas.
“The Steelers have signed C/G Brock Hoffman (6-4, 302) to a 1-year deal to strength their depth in the interior of the offensive line,” wrote Kaboly on X. “The 26-year-old played 4 seasons with the Cowboys.
“He went undrafted in 2022 out of Virginia Tech, but was an UDFA of Cleveland that year.
He was added to the Dallas practice squad late in 2022 by now Steelers coach Mike McCarthy.”
As Kaboly noted, Hoffman began his career under first-year Steelers head coach Mike McCarthy. He appeared in three games as a rookie during 2022.
Hoffman then dressed for all 17 regular season contests for the Cowboys each of the past three years.
In 2024, Hoffman started the final seven games. During 2025, he started Weeks 3-8 and then again in Week 18.
Besides quarterback, interior offensive line, specifically left guard, was the biggest roster hole remaining this offseason for the Steelers. The team addressed that twice Friday.
In addition to Hoffman, the Steelers also re-signed backup center Ryan McCollum, who can also play guard.
With both Hoffman and McCollum, the Steelers have addressed their interior offensive line depth. It’s also possible Hoffman could compete for the team’s starting job at left guard.
