Former Samford quarterback Devlin Hodges was invited to the Pittsburgh Steelers’ rookie minicamp. He must have impressed because he announced on social media that he signed a contract with the Steelers on Sunday.

Hodges was the best player in the FCS last season. He won the Walter Payton Award as the most outstanding player after throwing for 4,283 yards and 32 passing touchdowns. Hodges also chipped in 313 rushing yards and eight scores on the ground.

Officially signed with the Pittsburgh Steelers!!! Thankful for the opportunity! Thank you God!!

The most significant part of the Hodges signing is it likely means Brogan Roback’s days are numbered with the Steelers. There’s no denying how productive Hodges was in college, even against top tier competition.

But the reality is Hodges was signed to work his way through training camp and perhaps the preseason as the No. 4 quarterback in hopes of landing somewhere else. The Steelers are stocked up at quarterback. Mason Rudolph and Josh Dobbs will duke it out for the No. 2 and 3 spots next season.
