Joins Steelers' practice squad
Pittsburgh signed Welschof to its practice squad Tuesday, Teresa Varley of the Steelers' official site reports.
ANALYSIS
Welschof was waived from Pittsburgh's practice squad with a knee injury prior to Week 1, but he's now healthy and back with the team ahead of Week 13. With Alex Highsmith struggling to get back to full strength from a lingering ankle injury, it makes some sense that the Steelers are adding a potential depth option on the edge.

To spend year on IR
The Steelers placed Welschof (knee) on their injured reserve list Tuesday, Teresa Varley of the team's official site reports.
ANALYSIS
Welschof picked up a knee issue during Pittsburgh's last preseason game at Detroit, and it looks like he'll now spend the entire campaign working to recover. He still hasn't played a regular-season NFL snap.

Nursing knee injury
Welschof sustained a knee injury during the Steelers' 24-17 preseason loss to the Lions on Saturday, Ari Meyer of SI.com reports.
ANALYSIS
Welschof had his best performance of the preseason Saturday, when he registered two sacks in the first half. He's competing for a depth spot at outside linebacker behind starters T.J. Watt and Alex Highsmith. A multi-week injury would hurt Welschof's already slim chance at making the Steelers' 53-man roster at the conclusion of training camp.
