The Steelers worked out running back Darrynton Evans today, per NFL insider Aaron Wilson.

Evans was drafted in the third round of the 2020 NFL Draft by the Tennessee Titans. He played college football at Appalachian State, where he recorded 255 carries for 1,480 rushing yards and 18 touchdowns on the ground his final season. He also added 21 catches for 198 yards and another five touchdowns in the receiving game.

Evans ran a 4.41-second 40-yard dash at the NFL Combine at 5’10, 203 pounds. You can read NFL.com’s Lance Zierlein’s draft profile on him below:

Slashing outside-zone runner with glide in his stride and ability to run with elusiveness and creativity. Evans is a little undersized and might be viewed as a change-of-pace option, but he appears to have the three-down skill set to handle committee carries. He can run with patience, but has the loose hips and agile feet to plant-and-go in a hurry. He sees the field and does a nice job of setting up and eluding tacklers with lateral cuts or stacked moves. While he’s confident in space, Evans lacks the commitment and finishing force to make a living inside the tackles. His third-down and kick-return versatility increases the likelihood that Evans will hear his name called in the middle rounds with a chance to become a solid RB2.

However, Evans’ Titans career was derailed by injuries, with three injured reserve stints in his first two NFL seasons. He was waived in 2022.

Since then, Evans has spent time with the Bears, Colts, Bills, and Dolphins. Over his career, he’s played in 19 games, recording 62 carries for 246 yards and a touchdown, as well as 12 catches for 120 yards and a touchdown. Evans has also recorded several punt and kickoff returns.

The Steelers still have an open roster spot, with reinstated cornerback Cam Sutton officially joining the 53-man roster late Monday.
