The Pittsburgh Steelers may have found their potential replacement for veteran Pro Bowl guard Isaac Seumalo, a versatile offensive lineman with ties to new head coach Mike McCarthy.
On Tuesday afternoon, NFL insider Jordan Schultz claimed that the Steelers were signing former Dallas Cowboys guard/center Brock Hoffman, who was coached by McCarthy from 2022 to 2024.

Hoffman, who signed with the Browns as an undrafted free agent following the 2022 NFL Draft, was released from their practice squad in November and signed with the Cowboys shortly afterward.
Appearing in 54 games and making 16 starts during his first four seasons in the NFL, Hoffman has emerged as a versatile and solid depth piece at both center and guard.
Hoffman has allowed just two sacks since entering the league and would be more than capable of competing with Spencer Anderson for Pittsburgh's left guard vacancy.
