The Pittsburgh Steelers are making SEC moves.
The Steelers announces Tuesday that they would waive former Alabama LB Ryan Anderson and sign former Tennessee wide receiver Josh Malone off the practice squad.
Anderson played in 5 games this season for the Steelers, totaling just 1 tackle in 28 defensive snaps. Malone, a 4-year NFL veteran, has now made 4 stops in his NFL career: New York (Jets) Cincinnati, Tennessee and now Pittsburgh. He has just 11 receptions for 94 yards and 1 touchdown.

Malone was especially effective his junior season, where he hauled in 50 passes for 971 yards and 11 touchdowns on a 2016 Tennessee team that finished the year 9-4.
Anderson also had his best year in 2016, totaling 61 tackles, 8.5 sacks and 1 interception.
