Carson Steele. He was released by the Eagles and that confused more than a few people... He's just not quite good enough to make plays against starters. Steele is great in the summer when he's going against future car salesmen, insurance employees or welders. He's not the same when going against guys like Zack Baun.

STACKED’s take

Negative signalBust

Steele released after preseason flash; struggles against starters despite August success.

Released by the Eagles after a strong preseason performance, Steele exemplifies a player who shines in August against lower-competition opponents but fails to translate that to success against starters. The source notes he has the right size, athleticism, and effort for preseason success but is not quite good enough to make plays against starters. In 2024 with KC, he ran for 183 yards (3.3 yards per carry) and caught 7 passes (3.7 yards per reception)—not ideal production. He struggles when facing quality defenders like Zack Baun.
