13 Mar
Summary
- Miles Killebrew signed a one-year deal with the Buccaneers.
- The contract with Tampa Bay is worth $1.8 million.
- Killebrew reunites with former special teams coach Danny Smith.

Pittsburgh Steelers special teams standout Miles Killebrew has signed a one-year contract with the Tampa Bay Buccaneers, valued at $1.8 million. This marks a significant shift for Killebrew, who suffered a season-ending knee injury in Week 6 of the previous season, impacting his free agency prospects.
Killebrew will be rejoining Danny Smith, his former special teams coach, who is now the coordinator for the Buccaneers. Killebrew, initially joining the Steelers in 2021, rapidly became recognized as a premier special teamer in the NFL. His achievements include two Pro Bowl selections and a First-Team All-Pro selection in 2023.
Following Killebrew's departure, the Steelers assigned special teams captain duties to wide receiver Ben Skowronek, who performed admirably in the role. This upcoming season will be Killebrew's eleventh in the National Football League.
