The Steelers worked out tight ends Dakota Allen and Parker Hesse on Monday, per NFL insider Aaron Wilson.
Allen, not to be confused with the NFL linebacker of the same name, played college football for Eastern Kentucky. In his final collegiate season, 2022, the 6'4, 249-pound tight end recorded 26 catches for 353 yards and three touchdowns before his season was cut short by an ACL injury.
Hesse has a bigger connection to Smith, as he was with the Falcons from 2021-22, appearing in 25 games over that span and recording 14 receptions for 132 yards. However, Hesse was efficient on his limited touches, with nine of his catches going for first downs.
