A former Pittsburgh Steelers running back has reportedly found a new home with the New York Giants.
According to Dan Duggan of The Athletic, the Giants are signing running back Jonathan Ward following a successful workout on Monday morning.
A former undrafted free agent out of Central Michigan, Ward spent the 2024 season with the Steelers, where he tallied five carries for 22 yards in four games.
As he has for his entire career, Ward did most of his work on special teams. He also has limited experience returning kicks, although he didn't do that in Pittsburgh.
Prior to his stint with the Steelers, Ward appeared in contests for the Arizona Cardinals and Tennessee Titans from 2020 through 2023.
Ward has also had cups of coffee with the New York Jets (practice squad) and Cleveland Browns (2021 offseason roster).
Ward's signing by the Giants comes on the heels of running backs Cam Skattebo (hamstring) and Rushawn Baker (knee) dealing with minor injuries.
