What happened: Roberts returns after spending the 2023 and 2024 seasons with Pittsburgh. Lee appeared in seven regular-season games in 2025 after missing 2024 on injured reserve.
Why it matters: The move adds a veteran linebacker during the 2026 preseason. Lee's placement creates an opening on the active roster.
By the numbers: Lee recorded two solo tackles, two passes defensed and one quarterback hit across seven games in 2025.
What to watch: Roberts' place in the linebacker rotation will come into focus during the preseason. Lee's status bears watching as the roster approaches final cuts.
