The acquisition of Mike Williams isn't the only move the Pittsburgh Steelers made on trade deadline day.

NFL Network's Ian Rapoport and Tom Pelissero reported that the Green Bay Packers sent defensive end Preston Smith to the Steelers.

The 6-foot-5 defender was selected No. 38 overall by the Washington Redskins in the 2015 NFL draft and spent four seasons with the club.

The Packers signed Smith as a free agent in 2019.

In his 10-year career, Smith has appeared in all 155 games (138 starts) and logged 68.5 sacks, 430 tackles (71 for loss), 155 quarterback hits, 10 forced fumbles, six fumble recoveries (two for touchdowns) and five interceptions for 56 yards.
