Teague made his impact with the Steelers leading up to the 2022 season, making a highlight-reel play in a one-on-one drill against a Steelers defender by lowering a shoulder and trucking a defensive player, forcing him to the ground, while still remaining upright and in bounds.
Teague was later carted off the field with a low ankle sprain.
Teague was previously signed by the Chicago Bears as an undrafted free agent shortly after the 2022 NFL draft, but was cut after the team's three-day rookie camp.
