PITTSBURGH — The Pittsburgh Steelers have re-signed safety Karl Joseph to a one-year deal, the team announced. 

Joseph, 28, returns after spending last season on the practice squad. He was active for two games and recorded two tackles. He was considered a high-end addition to the teams practice squad but with the performance of Tre Norwood, the Steelers weren't in need of a backup safety. 

Joseph will join Norwood, Minkah Fitzpatrick and Miles Killebrew as Pittsburgh's safeties. General manager Kevin Colbert said at the Owners Meetings that the team still didn't have a starting strong safety. As of now, Joseph and Norwood seem like the top contenders. 

The Steelers also signed linebacker Genard Avery to a one-year deal.
