Steelers sign veteran CB Tre Flowers to active roster

The Pittsburgh Steelers signed veteran cornerback Tre Flowers to their 53-man roster on Thursday.

Flowers, 30, appeared in two games this season with the Detroit Lions before being released on Nov. 30.

He has recorded four interceptions and 287 tackles in 97 career games (44 starts) with six teams since 2018.

The AFC North-leading Steelers (9-6) visit the Cleveland Browns (3-12) on Sunday and can clinch the division with a victory or a Ravens loss on Saturday.

Flowers played his first three-plus seasons with the Seattle Seahawks, who drafted him in the fifth round in 2018.

He has also played for the Cincinnati Bengals, Atlanta Falcons, Jacksonville Jaguars and Indianapolis Colts.

Steelers cornerback Brandin Echols (groin) did not practice Wednesday and cornerback James Pierre (calf) was limited.
