Sat Aug 30 2014 | 22:10 | Paulson casualty of Steelers' final roster cuts |
Paulson was a casualty of the Steelers' final roster cuts, the Pittsburgh Post-Gazette reports. |
With fullback Will Johnson likely to take some snaps at tight-end this season Paulson, who played in 32 games the past two seasons and started nine, became expendable, as was seventh-round draft pick Rob Blanchflower. Heath Miller will start, with Michael Palmer and Matt Spaeth serving as back-ups. |
Tue Sep 17 2013 | 01:04 | David Paulson catches three passes in loss |
David Paulson caught three passes for 49 yards in the Steelers' Week 2 loss to the Bengals on Monday night. |
Paulson will be remembered for losing a fumble at the Bengals' 16-yard line after a 34-yard catch-and-run in the first quarter. Filling in at tight end until Heath Miller (knee) returns, Paulson brings nothing to the table. |

Wed Aug 7 2013 | 22:17 | David Paulson may be Steelers starting TE |
Steelers TEs coach James Daniel acknowledged David Paulson could be the team's Week 1 starting tight end. |
"Yep, he could possibly be the starter," said Daniel. Paulson was a seventh-round pick out of Oregon in 2012, catching seven passes in his rookie year. He caught 31 balls as a college senior and ran a 4.93 forty at the Combine. With Heath Miller still rehabbing his triple-knee ligament tear, Antonio Brown and Emmanuel Sanders project as potential target monsters in this offense. |

Sun Feb 3 2013 | 12:11 | Paulson to handle TE duties with Miller out |
The Pittsburgh Post-Gazette expects David Paulson to handle tight end duties for however long Heath Miller (ACL, MCL surgery) is out. |
If so, it's quite the downgrade. Paulson was a seventh-round pick out of Oregon in last year's draft, and he appeared in all 16 games as a rookie, catching just seven passes for 51 yards. Practice squad-types Jamie McCoy and Zack Pianalto are the only other tight ends on the roster. Miller will be up against the clock for Week 1. |
