Cut from Steelers' practice squad Isabella was let go from the Steelers' practice squad Tuesday, Teresa Varley of the team's official site reports.

Impact Isabella spent the first two months of the regular season without a team after failing to make the Bills' 53-man roster at the end of training camp. He managed to catch on with the Steelers' practice squad Oct. 25, but he was not elevated for a game. Assuming he clears waivers, Isabella will look to join a team in need of depth at wide receiver.

Joins Pittsburgh's practice squad The Steelers signed Isabella to the practice squad Friday.

Impact Isabella, who spent time with the Bills during the offseason, will now get a chance to operate in an emergency depth role for Pittsburgh. The 2019 second-round pick has appeared in four combined regular-season games with Buffalo over the last two years.

OCTOBER 25 • ROTOWIRE

Cut by Buffalo The Bills released Isabella on Tuesday, Alaina Getzenberg of ESPN.com reports.

Impact Selected with the No. 62 overall pick in the 2019 NFL Draft by the Cardinals, Isabella was cut by Arizona in October of 2022 and has spent the last couple years bouncing around the practice squads and active rosters of the Ravens and Bills. Now 27, Isabella is running out of time in the NFL and hasn't caught a regular-season pass since he left the Cardinals.

Recovers from injury Isabella (leg) returned to practice Wednesday, Joe Buscaglia of The Athletic reports.

Impact Isabella was able to make a quick recovery after being carted off the field Monday. The 27-year-old is likely facing an uphill battle to make the Bills' final 53-man roster, but his speedy return to the field should keep him in contention for now.

Carted off during camp Isabella (leg) left Monday's camp session on a cart, Matt Parrino of The Syracuse Post-Standard reports.

Impact The 2019 second-round pick out of UMass is fighting for a depth spot on Buffalo's 53-man roster after appearing in just four regular-season games in 2023. The severity of Isabella's injury is currently unknown, and if the 27-year-old misses time, his chances of making it past the Bills' final roster cuts are likely slim.

Practice squad bound Isabella was reverted back to the Bills' practice squad Friday, per the NFL's transaction log.

Impact The 2019 second-round pick was promoted to Buffalo's active roster ahead of the team's Thursday night affair, but he's since been reverted back to the practice squad. Isabella has recorded 33 receptions for 447 yards and three touchdowns throughout his five-year NFL career.

Gets elevated for Thursday Buffalo elevated Isabella from its practice squad to the active roster for Thursday's game versus Tampa Bay.

Impact Isabella is in position to make his 2023 debut in Week 8 on Thursday Night Football. Barring an injury to Stefon Diggs or Gabe Davis though, his theoretical path to significant playing time is difficult to see.

Ravens release WRs Andy Isabella and Mike Thomas, claim WR Makai Polk off waivers

Lands new contract with Baltimore The Ravens signed Isabella to a reserve/future contract Thursday, Field Yates of ESPN reports.

Impact Isabella will stick with Baltimore after joining the team's practice squad Oct. 10. The 5-foot-9 wideout collected 30 of 47 targets for 413 yards and three touchdowns over his first two seasons with Arizona, though he became a total non-factor in 2021 and was waived after the first four games of the 2022 regular season. Isabella was elevated for three games with Baltimore, including the loss to Cincinnati in the wild-card round of the playoffs. However, he never caught a pass while playing six offensive snaps across these contests, so he'll look to carve out a much more significant role heading into the 2023 campaign.

Reverts to practice squad Isabella reverted to Baltimore's practice squad Monday, per the NFL's transaction log.

Impact Isabella was elevated for a third (and final) time during the wild-card loss to Cincinnati but failed to log any counting stats across three offensive snaps. He made five appearances during the 2022 campaign (three with Arizona and two with Baltimore) and caught two of five targets for 21 yards, which all came as a Cardinal.

Impact This marks Isabella's third (and final) elevation of the 2022 season and his first since injuring his thigh Week 17 versus the Steelers. Considering he's back on the active roster, the health concern is behind him, and with Tylan Wallace (hamstring) hitting IR on Saturday, Isabella could be more utilized on offense this weekend than in prior games, with Demarcus Robinson, Sammy Watkins, James Proche and fellow practice-squad call-up Binjimen Victor serving as Baltimore's other healthy wide receivers.

Shifts back to practice squad Isabella reverted to Baltimore's practice squad Monday, per the NFL's official transaction log.

Impact Isabella was promoted to the active roster for the second time in as many weeks ahead of Sunday's loss to Pittsburgh. He wound up logging a one-yard rush while playing three of his six snaps on offense, and he was forced out with a thigh during the third quarter. It's unclear if this issue will affect his availability for the Ravens' regular-season finale, but he should still be considered a top candidate for a depth role in the team's undermanned receiving corps when healthy.

Injures thigh Sunday Isabella suffered a thigh injury during Sunday's game against the Steelers.

Impact Prior to his exit in the third quarter, Isabella had one carry for one yard. The Ravens elevated him from the practice squad for Week 17 action, so he'll revert back for a second consecutive week Monday.

Elevated to active roster The Ravens elevated Isabella from their practice squad to the active roster Saturday ahead of the Week 17 contest against the Steelers, Field Yates of ESPN reports.

Impact This marks Isabella's second straight elevation for Baltimore, as he played three offensive snaps and five special-teams snaps last week against Atlanta. The fourth-year wideout also played in three games for the Cardinals earlier this season, catching two passes on five targets for 21 yards. The Ravens' passing game has been fairly unproductive of late with Tyler Huntley -- who will start Sunday against Pittsburgh -- at the helm in place of Lamar Jackson (knee).

JANUARY 1, 2023 • ROTOWIRE

Back to practice squad Isabella reverted to Baltimore's practice squad Monday.

Impact The speedster primarily played on special teams Saturday despite questionable depth at wide receiver for the Ravens. It's hard to imagine the 2019 second-round pick really carving out a substantial fantasy role, but the offense could improve if Lamar Jackson (knee) is able to return in Week 17.
