The Steelers have offered a contract to former Boise State quarterback Jared Zabransky with the idea he could possibly be more than just an extra arm in training camp.
Zabransky, who spent part of last season on the Houston Texans practice squad, worked out for the Steelers last week and is expected to sign a one-year free agent contract with the team, said his agent, Monroeville native Eric Metz.
Zabransky was told he will have a chance to compete for a roster spot, particularly if third-team quarterback Brian St. Pierre, who is an unrestricted free agent, is not re-signed.
