Steelers Sign Flashy Arizona State RB

The Pittsburgh Steelers are adding to their running back room.

LATROBE -- The Pittsburgh Steelers are adding another running back to their 90-man roster, signing Xazavian Valladay, according to KPRC2's Aaron Wilson.

The Arizona State product comes to Pittsburgh as an undrafted rookie. He wasn't invited to the NFL Combine, but did run a 4.46 40-yard dash during his Pro Day. Valladay started his college career at Wyoming, rushing for 3,274 yards and 19 touchdowns. In his sole season at Arizona State, he rushed for 1,192 yards and 16 touchdowns. Over his five-year career, he averaged 5.3 yards per carry.

Valladay comes into Pittsburgh with a week left of training camp and two more preseason games. He'll compete with Anthony McFarland, Darius Hagans and Greg Bell for the final roster spot behind Najee Harris and Jaylen Warren. 

The addition of Valladay could mark the end of John Lovett, who has missed practice for over a week of practice with an undisclosed injury. Valladay is the team's third signing as they begin their final week of training camp.
