The Kansas City Chiefs have re-signed two former members of the Pittsburgh Steelers for the 2025 season.

After their loss to the Philadelphia Eagles in Super Bowl LIX on Sunday, the Chiefs got a late start on the process of signing players to future contracts for the 2025 season, but Kansas City general manager Brett Veach got on the ball on Tuesday, signing 11 players to future contracts, including two former members of the Steelers: cornerback Darius Rush and quarterback Chris Oladokun.

Rush spent parts of the 2023 and 2024 seasons with the Steelers before he was waived on Oct. 1 and signed back in Kansas City. The Steelers had signed Rush off the Chiefs practice squad in 2023.

When the Steelers did not re-sign veteran backup James Pierre before the 2024 season, it appeared that Rush had passed him in the pecking order, but after two games, the Steelers brought Pierre back into the fold and Rush was a healthy scratch for each of his last two games with the team after playing 19 snaps of special teams over the first two weeks. Pierre solidified himself as the better special teamer, making Rush expendable.

Rush did not play in a game this year after joining Kansas City’s practice squad.

Oladokun was Pittsburgh’s seventh-round pick in the 2022 NFL Draft. He did not make the Steelers team coming out of training camp, signed with the Chiefs practice squad, and has been with Kansas City ever since.

Oladokun was elevated from the K.C. practice squad for the team’s Week 18 game against the Denver Broncos, and got into his first NFL action, rushing once for five yards while playing five offensive snaps.
