PITTSBURGH ─ The Steelers promoted second-year LB Donovan Woods to their active roster today. Woods had spent the first 10 weeks of the season on the team's practice squad.
Â
Woods (6-2, 230) originally signed with the Steelers in 2008 as an undrafted rookie out of Oklahoma State. He made the Steelers' active roster coming out of training camp as a rookie and played in a total of five games before being placed on the team's practice squad for the remainder of the season.
Â
Woods was in training camp with the Steelers in 2009, but was released during the final preseason roster cuts. He will wear uniform No. 95.
Â
The Steelers made room on their active roster for Woods by releasing fourth-year LB Arnold Harrison. Harrison had recorded seven special teams tackles for the Steelers this season.
