  • Suspension lifted

    The Steelers activated Kazee from the reserve-suspended list Monday, Aaron Wilson of KPRC 2 Houston reports.

    Analysis: Kazee was suspended for three games after an illegal hit to the head of Michael Pittman in Week 15 against the Colts. Because the Steelers qualified for the postseason, Kazee will be able to suit up for the team's playoff game against the Bills on Sunday. The 2017 fifth-round pick accumulated 61 tackles (46 solo), three passes defended, two interceptions and two fumble recoveries over 14 games in the regular season.

  • Suspension upheld

    Kazee will be out for the remainder of the regular season after the NFL upheld his three-game suspension Wednesday, Brooke Pryor of ESPN.com reports.

    Analysis: Kazee was handed the three-game ban after he flagged and ejected for an illegal hit to the head of Colts wideout Michael Pittman in this past Saturday's 30-13 loss to Indianapolis. Pittman left the game and was later placed in concussion protocol, and since Kazee had previously been fined five times this season for unnecessary roughness penalties, the league factored the safety's history of unsportsmanlike play into the decision to suspend him. Kazee will be eligible to return to action in the…read more

  • Suspension could end season

    Kazee was suspended for the remainder of the season Monday for repeated violations of rules intended to protect player safety, Alan Saunders of SteelersNow.com reports.

    Analysis: Kazee made a hard hit on a diving Michael Pittman during Saturday's game at Indianapolis, which presumably prompted the league's action. He will have a chance to appeal the suspension, but at this point, it looks like his 2023 campaign is over.

  • Picks off pass in win

    Kazee recorded five tackles (four solo) while intercepting a pass and deflecting another in Sunday's 23-19 win against Green Bay.

    Analysis: Kazee was able to seal the game in the fourth quarter, picking off Packers quarterback Jordan Love as time expired. The safety has been filling in for Minkah Fitzpatrick (hamstring) the last three games, compiling 14 tackles, two interceptions and two pass deflections during that stretch.

  • Practices in full Tuesday

    Kazee (hand) was a full participant in Tuesday's practice.

    Analysis: Kazee was an estimated limited participant for Monday's practice after sustaining a hand injury in Sunday's 20-10 loss to the Jaguars. By practicing in full Tuesday, he should be good to for Thursday's game against the Titans and is expected to slot in as the starting strong safety with Minkah Fitzpatrick (hamstring) ruled out for the contest.

  • Snags first INT, hurts hand in loss

    Kazee (hand) had five solo tackles and an interception in Sunday's 20-10 loss to the Jaguars. He was estimated as a limited participant for Monday's practice, Teresa Varley of the Steelers' official site reports.

    Analysis: Kazee picked off Trevor Lawrence on a pass intended for Calvin Ridley that stopped the Jaguars' drive deep in Steelers territory. It's unclear when he sustained the hand injury in Sunday's game, but he was estimated as a limited participant in Monday's practice. With Minkah Fitzpatrick (hamstring) already ruled out for Thursday's game against the Titans, Kazee is likely to slot in as the starting strong safety -- as long as he's healthy -- next to Keanu Neal at free safety.

  • Returns to practice

    Kazee (ankle) practiced in full Sunday, Chris Adamski of TribLive.com reports.

    Analysis: Kazee was sporting a walking boot at the end of July after suffering a sprained ankle in practice. Now fully recovered, the team's starter at strong safety should be able to turn his focus to being ready for the season opener against the 49ers.

  • In walking boot

    Kazee (ankle) said Sunday that the boot on his left foot is a precautionary measure to make sure he's healthy for Week 1, Brian Batko of the Pittsburgh Post-Gazette reports.

    Analysis: Kazee also noted that the injury itself is a "slightly sprained" left ankle that he twisted a bit during Saturday's practice. Once back to full health, he'll compete with Keanu Neal for the starting strong safety role beside free safety Minkah Fitzpatrick.

  • Back to Steelers on two-year deal

    The Steelers re-signed Kazee to a two-year contract Tuesday, ESPN's Brooke Pryor reports.

    Analysis: Kazee inked a one-year deal with the Steelers last offseason but missed the first eight games of the year on injured reserve with an arm issue. If Pittsburgh can't re-sign Terrell Edmunds in free agency, Kazee makes sense as a replacement next to Minkah Fitzpatrick. Kazee has made 53 career starts across six seasons with three different teams.

  • Ready to go Sunday

    Kazee (arm) will get a start at safety Sunday against the Saints, Gerry Dulac of the Pittsburgh Post-Gazette reports.

    Analysis: Kazee was placed on the 53-man roster Thursday after spending the entire season thus far on IR, while he recovered from a fractured arm. With Minkah Fitzpatrick (appendix) out, Kazee will immediately step into a prominent role in the Steelers secondary.

    Published: Sun, Nov 13 at 8:09am by Rotowire.com

  • Activated to 53-man roster

    The Steelers restored Kazee (arm) to the active roster Thursday, Teresa Varley of the team's official site reports.

    Analysis: Kazee is set to play for the first time this season heading into Sunday's game against the Saints. The 29-year-old fractured his forearm during the preseason and opened the 2022 campaign on injured reserve. Kazee recorded 52 tackles, four passes defended, two interceptions and two forced fumbles over 17 regular-season games with Dallas last year, so he could play a prominent reserve role behind starting safeties Terrell Edmunds and Minkah Fitzpatrick for the final nine weeks of the season.

  • Nearing season debut

    Kazee (arm) said Monday he expects to be activated from Pittsburgh's injured reserve list before Thursday ahead of a Week 10 matchup versus New Orleans, Brooke Pryor of ESPN.com reports.

    Analysis: Kazee said he broke his forearm during the preseason and had nine screws and a plate put in to repair it, but it now appears he could return to play his first snaps of the regular season Sunday. He figures to fill a depth role behind Minkah Fitzpatrick and Terrell Edmunds once he's ready to play again.

  • Returns to practice Thursday

    Kazee (arm) was designated to return from injured reserve Thursday, Teresa Varley of the Steelers' official site reports.

    Analysis: Kazee underwent surgery on his left arm after sustaining an injury during Pittsburgh's preseason finale, and he was expected to sit out until at least Week 6 while recovering on IR. Now, the veteran safety will have a 21-day window to practice and be activated to the Steelers' 53-man roster, or else he'll revert to season-ending IR. Kazee tallied 52 tackles, four passes defended, two interceptions and a pair of forced fumbles over 17 contests with Dallas last year, and he could play a prominent…read more

  • Suspension lifted

    Kazee (arm) finished serving a three-game suspension for violating the NFL's policy on substance abuse Monday, per the NFL's transaction log.

    Analysis: Kazee served all three games of his suspension while on the Steelers' injured reserve with a wrist injury suffered in late August, which was expected to keep him sidelined until at least Week 6. The 29-year-old safety recorded 52 tackles, four passes defended and two interceptions while playing 850 defensive snaps over 17 games with Dallas last season. With starting strong safety Terrell Edmunds still in concussion protocol after sitting out Week 5, Kazee could quickly step into a prominent…read more

  • Suspended three games

    Kazee has been suspended three games for violating the NFL's policy on substance abuse, Brooke Pryor of ESPN.com reports.

    Analysis: Per the report, Kazee, who had been on IR with a wrist injury that he sustained in the Steelers' final preseason game, will be able to serve his suspension while on IR. In any case, the earliest the safety can return to action is in Week 6, though once his suspension is complete, it remains to be seen if he'll be healthy enough to come off IR at that juncture.

  • Out at least six weeks

    Kazee (arm) is expected to miss 6-to-8 weeks while recovering from left arm surgery, Mark Kaboly of The Athletic reports.

    Analysis: The Steelers officially placed Kazee on injured reserve Thursday, but he appears primed to miss more than the requisite four games. That the 2017 fifth-rounder will be able to return this season is good news for the Steelers, but to begin the year, a replacement will need to be found alongside Minkah Fitzpatrick. Terrell Edmunds seems the likeliest candidate for the time being.

  • Heading to IR

    Kazee (arm) requires surgery and will be placed on injured reserve by the Steelers, Gerry Dulac of the Pittsburgh Post-Gazette reports.

    Analysis: Kazee went down late in Sunday's preseason finale against the Lions, and his injury will force him to miss significant time. The 2017 fifth-rounder's return timetable is dependent on when the Steelers officially place him on IR, as he'll be eligible to return as early as Week 5 against the Buccaneers on Oct. 16 if the team waits until Tuesday to put him on IR. Linden Stephens is a candidate to serve as the No. 2 strong safety behind Terrell Edmunds.

  • Ruled out for game

    Kazee has been ruled out for the remainder of Sunday's preseason game against the Lions due to an arm injury, Brooke Pryor of ESPN.com reports.

    Analysis: Kazee went down early in the third quarter of Sunday's matchup and appeared to be favoring his left wrist as he headed to the locker room. He returned to the sideline in the fourth quarter with his left arm in a sling, Josh Rowntree of 93.7 The Fan reports. It's unclear whether Kazee will be available for Pittsburgh's Week 1 matchup against Cincinnati on Sept. 11.

  • Signs with Steelers

    Kazee signed a one-year deal with the Steelers on Saturday, Jeremy Fowler of ESPN.com reports.

    Analysis: Kazee spent last season with the Cowboys after spending the previous four years with the Falcons. The 28-year-old played in 17 games in 2021, recording 52 tackles (35 solo), four passes defensed, two forced fumbles and two interceptions. Kazee likely will provide depth at safety behind starters Minkah Fitzpatrick and Terrell Edmunds.

  • Facing DWI charges

    Kazee was arrested Tuesday in The Colony, Texas and was charged with driving under the influence, Michael Gehlken of The Dallas Morning News reports.

    Analysis: Kazee was pulled over for a traffic stop and failed a field sobriety test, which resulted in his arrest. The 28-year-old will likley face some discipline from the NFL for the incident, though it's unclear if/when that decision will come down from the league office. Kazee has 17 tackles (13 solo), an interception and a forced fumble through six games this season as the Cowboys head into their bye week.

  • Ready to face Patriots

    Kazee (hip) is active for Sunday's game against the Patriots.

    Analysis: Kazee was sidelined for most of the week but logged a limited practice Friday. That will be enough for him to take the field Sunday and serve as the team's starting free safety. Through five games, Kazee has recorded 14 tackles, three passes defended and one interception.

  • Listed as questionable

    The Cowboys have listed Kazee (hip) as questionable ahead of Sunday's matchup with the Patriots, David Helman of the Cowboys' official site reports.

    Analysis: Kazee was a non-participant at practice for consecutive days to kick off the week before logging a limited workload Friday. While that seemingly indicates he is trending in the right direction, it remains to be seen if he will ultimately be able to suit up. Malik Hooker would be the next man up to replace him at free safety if he is unable to go.

  • Active in Week 2

    Kazee (thigh) is active for Sunday's Week 2 matchup against the Chargers, Michael Gehlken of the Dallas Morning News reports.

    Analysis: The offseason acquisition was limited both Thursday and Friday, but he ultimately won't be an addition to the Cowboys' list of absent defensive starters for Sunday's interconference tilt. Kazee figures to have a busy afternoon trying to contain a potent Chargers passing game, particularly with fellow safety Donovan Wilson (groin) one of the aforementioned players who will be out of action.

  • Questionable for Week 2

    The Cowboys listed Kazee (thigh) as questionable ahead of Sunday's matchup against the Chargers, Adam H. Beasley of the Miami Herald reports.

    Analysis: Kazee was a limited participant in practice Thursday and Friday and will likely be a game-time decision Sunday. The 28-year-old safety played 52 defensive snaps and registered two tackles in the season opener.

  • Activated from COVID-19 list

    Kazee (illness) was activated from the reserve/COVID-19 list Thursday, Michael Gehlken of The Dallas Morning News reports.

    Analysis: Kazee was one of several Cowboys who tested positive for COVID-19 last week, but he'll rejoin the team after missing just over a week. The safety will have a week to prepare for the team's Week 1 matchup against the Buccaneers and will likely be able to handle a full workload following his absence.

  • Tests positive for COVID-19

    Kazee was placed on the reserve/COVID-19 list Wednesday after he tested positive for the virus, Michael Gehlken of The Dallas Morning News reports.

    Analysis: The Cowboys have been dealing with a COVID-19 outbreak recently, and Kazee will be away from the team due to the league's health and safety protocols. Both Kazee and Malik Hooker are now on the COVID-19 list, and it's not yet clear whether they'll be ready to return by Week 1. If the two safeties are unable to play to begin the regular season, Darian Thompson and Tyler Coyle are candidates to see increased playing time.

  • Reunites with Quinn in Dallas

    Kazee (Achilles) has signed a one-year contract with the Cowboys, Ian Rapoport of NFL Network reports.

    Analysis: Kazee played under Cowboys defensive coordinator Dan Quinn when Quinn was the head coach in Atlanta, so perhaps that familiarity attracted the safety to Dallas. He tore his Achilles after four games last season but is expected to be fully healthy for training camp with his new team.

  • Not expected back in Atlanta

    Kazee (Achilles) is not expected to re-sign with the Falcons, Ian Rapoport of NFL Network reports.

    Analysis: Kazee was a 16-game starter during his first three seasons with the Falcons, but a torn Achilles tendon limited him to four contests in 2020. The 27-year-old safety is expected to receive full clearance by training camp, so barring any setbacks his health shouldn't prove much of an issue as he looks for a team in free agency.

  • Officially placed on IR

    The Falcons placed Kazee (Achilles) on injured reserve Wednesday, Will McFadden of the team's official site reports.

    Analysis: Kazee tore his Achilles in Monday's loss to the Packers, so he'll be shut down for the season. The Falcons may struggle to replace him in the short term, as Keanu Neal (hamstring), Ricardo Allen (elbow) and Jaylinn Hawkins (concussion) were all on Wednesday's injury report. Kazee will focus on getting healthy for the 2021 season, but he may be playing with a new team since his current contract expires in March.

  • Torn Achilles confirmed

    Kazee suffered a torn Achilles during Monday's loss to the Packers and has been ruled out for the year, Will McFadden of the Falcons' official site reports.

    Analysis: Kazee hasn't missed a game since entering the league in 2017, and he's been a key member of the Falcons' secondary this season, recording 20 tackles (17 solo) and a forced fumble through four games. Ricardo Allen (elbow) likely will take over at free safety if he's healthy. Kazee is expected to spend the rest of the season on IR, and he'll become a free agent in March.

  • Carted off with Achilles injury

    Kazee was carted off the field in the second quarter of the team's Week 4 matchup against the Packers and has been ruled out for the remainder of the game due to an Achilles injury, Tom Pelissero of NFL Network reports.

    Analysis: Kazee was down on the field for several minutes and appeared to be in considerable pain before being carted off. There are no details on the specifics of the injury at this point.

  • Full speed ahead

    Kazee (hamstring) won't carry an injury tag into Sunday's game versus the Bears, Will McFadden of the Falcons' official site reports.

    Analysis: While Kazee was a limited participant during practice Thursday and Friday, he's good to go for Week 3. Expect the fourth-year safety to start in Sunday's game after recording 12 tackles (11 solo) through the first two weeks.

  • Limited practice status

    Kazee (hamstring) was a limited participant during Thursday's practice, Vaughn McClure of ESPN.com reports.

    Analysis: Kazee missed Wednesday's practice session with a hip problem, but it was a hamstring injury that limited him Thursday. The fact that he was upgraded is still a positive sign for his chances to play Sunday against Chicago. If he's forced to miss Week 3, Ricardo Allen (elbow) or Sharrod Neasman would be in line for the start at free safety.

  • No practice Wednesday

    Kazee did not participate in Wednesday's practice due to a hip injury, Vaughn McClure of ESPN.com reports.

    Analysis: Kazee has only missed six percent of defensive snaps through two contests, so it's possible that the Falcons are simply allowing him a day of rest. The starting free safety will have two more opportunities to return to practice ahead of Sunday's game against the Bears.

  • Leads team in tackles

    Kazee recorded eight tackles (seven solo) across 77 defensive snaps in Sunday's loss to the Cowboys.

    Analysis: With Ricardo Allen (elbow) sidelined for the contest, Kazee was relied on even more than normal, playing in 94 percent of the team's defensive snaps. His eight tackles led the team, a performance he'll look to duplicate next Sunday against the Bears.

  • Heading into contract season

    Kazee says he is "not worried" about his next contract, Kelsey Conway of the Falcons' official site reports.

    Analysis: The 27-year-old has exceeded expectations for Atlanta, starting 29 contests over the past two seasons and missing zero games since entering the NFL as a fifth-round pick in 2017. Kazee demonstrated play-making ability during 2018 when he tied Kyle Fuller and Xavien Howard with a league-best seven interceptions, but during 2019 he became more reliable in coverage. Kazee allowed a passer rating of just 66.3 when targeted last season (compared to an 82.1 rating during his breakout 2018 campaign)…read more

  • Staying at safety

    Coach Dan Quinn said Kazee will stay at safety moving forward, Jason Butt of The Athletic reports.

    Analysis: The Falcons moved Kazee from free safety to slot corner last summer, eventually switching him back in late October. He finished the year with 14 starts in 16 appearances, piling up 74 tackles and three interceptions on 803 defensive snaps. D. Orlando Ledbetter of The Atlanta Journal-Constitution expects Kazee and Keanu Neal (Achilles) to sit atop the depth chart at safety whenever the Falcons are able to practice, while Ricardo Allen (shoulder) projects as the nickelback.

  • Earns performance-based bonus

    Kazee was awarded a $202,885 performance-based distribution Thursday, Vaughn McClure of ESPN.com reports.

    Analysis: The 26-year-old defensive back has substantially outperformed his rookie deal, and he will be well positioned for a lucrative new contract at the end of 2020 if he maintains the level of play he's established the past two seasons. Kazee has accumulated 10 interceptions, 13 pass deflections, two forced fumbles and 156 tackles since the start of the 2018 campaign, and during this upcoming season will see his base salary escalate from $645,000 to $2,147,000 before becoming an unrestricted free…read more

  • Collects three INTS during 2019

    Kazee collected 69 total tackles, three pass deflections, three interceptions and a forced fumble across 16 appearances for the Falcons in 2019.

    Analysis: Coach Dan Quinn intended to deploy Kazee as the team's primary nickelback this year, but an early-season injury to Keanu Neal (Achilles) forced him to shift Kazee back to his 2018 position of safety. Kazee was an X-factor in 2018 while collecting 10 pass deflections and an NFL-high seven interceptions, but this season, he endured drastic declines in each category while the Falcons improved from 28th to 22nd in pass defense.
