The Steelers will have $2 million against the cap with this move.<\/p>\n<p class=\"duet--article--dangerously-set-cms-markup duet--article--standard-paragraph _1nfb3k4i _16w9vov1 _16w9vov0 ls9zuh1\">Anderson has been with the Steelers since 2024, where he has appeared in 13 games. Before that, he spent 2023 with the New England Patriots and three seasons with the Denver Broncos from 2020-22. He will turn 30 in March.<\/p>\n<p class=\"duet--article--dangerously-set-cms-markup duet--article--standard-paragraph _1nfb3k4i _16w9vov1 _16w9vov0 ls9zuh1\">The Steelers got good play from Dylan Cook in the final six weeks of the season when Broderick Jones went down with a neck injury. The play of Cook likely played into Anderson\u2019s release, as the Steelers can feel a bit more comfortable with the younger depth.<\/p>\n<p class=\"duet--article--dangerously-set-cms-markup duet--article--standard-paragraph _1nfb3k4i _16w9vov1 _16w9vov0 ls9zuh1\">Let us know what you think in the comments.
