Mike Reilly Profile
Although the Pittsburgh Steelers haven't publicly announced their roster
cuts, an NFL source has told Scout.com that rookie quarterback Mike
Reilly has learned that he'll be among the players who will be released.
The 6-foot-3, 213-pound quarterback was the only Division II signal-caller
invited to the NFL Combine earlier this year. He began his collegiate career at
Washington State, but transferred to Central Washington State after his redshirt
freshman season. The move paid off for Reilly who was a four-year starter for
the Wildcats, passing for over 12,000 yards and completing 64 percent of his
throws.
Quick with both his feet and his decision-making while reading defenses and
the route progress of his receivers, Reilly shows good athleticism at his
position. Expect to see him land at least a practice squad position with an NFL
team over the next couple of days.
