Zach Mettenberger has a new team.

The Pittsburgh Steelers claimed Mettenberger off waivers and were awarded him on Wednesday, according to reports.

Mettenberger, who was a 6th-round pick by the Titans in 2014, played two seasons in Tennessee. He was in camp with the Chargers but they waived him after undrafted Mike Bercovici beat him out on the depth chart.

The Steelers were looking for more depth at the QB position after third-stringer Bruce Gradkowski suffered a season-ending hamstring injury.
