Steelers fans won't be happy about this news, as Pittsburgh's former cornerback Beanie Bishop has found a new home in the NFL.

On Tuesday, it was reported that Bishop signed with the New Orleans Saints practice squad, putting an end to any hope that he might return to the Steelers.

Signing with Pittsburgh as an undrafted free agent after going unselected in the 2024 NFL Draft, Bishop had a terrific rookie season — recording 45 combined tackles, half a sack, seven passes defended, a fumble recovery, and four interceptions in 16 games.

Here's to hoping Bishop finds his way back to Pittsburgh one day soon, as the young defender was a splash-play magnet during his rookie season and will no doubt prove himself on the Saints.
