Knile Davis Signs Steelers Contract After 2016 Season with Chiefs, Packers, Jets

The Pittsburgh Steelers have added more depth to their backfield by signing running back Knile Davis. 

Teresa Varley of the team's official website announced Davis had signed with the Steelers on Monday. 

Davis had a whirlwind 2016 season in which he started out playing for the Kansas City Chiefs, was traded to the Green Bay Packers in October after Eddie Lacy and James Starks were injured, was waived and claimed by the New York Jets two weeks later before being waived again and returning to the Chiefs.

In four NFL seasons, Davis has 805 rushing yards and 271 receiving yards. He will serve as a backup to Le'Veon Bell in Pittsburgh
