Steelers Add South African Punter Laros
Description
The Steelers just snagged a surprise punt specialist, Aidan Laros, off waivers from Tampa Bay — a South African-born kicker who averaged 45 yards per punt at Kentucky and earned a spot on the prestigious Ray Guy Award watch list. Coming in to compete with the lone other punter, Cameron Johnston, Laros brings SEC experience, versatility (handling both punts and kickoffs), and a resume that includes stints at Charlotte and Tennessee-Martin. His undrafted status makes this move even more intriguing. To make room, the Steelers waived wideout Brandon Johnson — a typical roster tweak as teams trim for the season. Now, the question is: Can Laros translate his college dominance to the NFL?
