## Resource

Julius Welschof, the German-born linebacker who bounced between practice squad and injured reserve, is back with the Steelers on a reserve/future contract — and this time, they’re betting he’s ready to break through. After five college seasons at Michigan and one final year at Charlotte, Welschof showed flashes of elite potential in preseason, but injuries and roster battles kept him sidelined. Now, at 29 and entering his third year with Pittsburgh, he’s got a golden opportunity to prove he belongs on the 53-man roster — and the Steelers’ faith in him says it’s worth the wait.
