Steelers cut DeCastro

The Pittsburgh Steelers on Thursday released six-time Pro Bowl guard David DeCastro in a surprise move. The 31-year-old DeCastro attended the team’s mandatory minicamp last week but did not participate in full-team drills. DeCastro, the team’s first-round pick in the 2012 draft, spent nine years with the Steelers. He was named All-Pro following the 2015 and 2017 seasons while playing on one of the most dominant offensive lines in the league. DeCastro was entering the final season of a five-year $50-million contract he signed in 2017. The decision does free up some salary-cap space for the Steelers to find a replacement.
