Injury waived by Chiefs
Kansas City waived Gathings (hamstring) with an injury waiver Friday. Per Matt Derrick of ChiefsDigest.com, by waiving Gathings with an injury waiver, if the tight end goes unclaimed, he'll become a free agent rather than landing on the team's IR list. In a corresponding move, the Chiefs signed TE Geor'Quarius Spivey.
Gets chance with Chiefs
Kansas City signed Gathings to a contract Sunday, Matt Derrick of ChiefsDigest.com reports. Gathings also got a look from Kansas City last year but didn't advance beyond the practice squad and was cut this May. He was subsequently signed by the Steelers before being waived in June. In a move corresponding with Gathings' signing, fellow tight end Gerrit Prince (lower leg) was waived.
Dropped by Steelers
The Steelers waived Gathings on Wednesday, Brian Batko of the Pittsburgh Post-Gazette reports. The 23-year-old tight end was picked up by the Steelers just last week, but the team has now decided to move in a different direction. Gathings also spent time with the Chiefs' practice squad in 2023, and he will now look elsewhere to appear in his first ever NFL game.
Lands with Pittsburgh
The Steelers signed Gathings to a one-year contract Wednesday, Teresa Varley of the team's official site reports. Gathings spent time on the Chiefs' practice squad last season and signed a reserve/future deal with Kansas City in February before being cut May 4. The 23-year-old out of Middle Tennessee joins a deep Pittsburgh tight-end corps that is headed by Pat Freiermuth, Darnell Washington and Connor Heyward, though that group was relatively unproductive last season.
Cut by Kansas City
The Chiefs waived Gathings on Saturday, Matt Derrick of ChiefsDigest.com reports. Gathings inked a reserve/future deal with Kansas City back in February after being part of the team's practice squad for nearly two months to close out the 2023 campaign. He's yet to play in a regular-season game.
