Pittsburgh Steelers
On January 22, 2016, Vaughan signed a futures contract with the Pittsburgh Steelers.[5] On August 28, he was waived-injured by the Steelers after suffering a thumb fracture in a preseason game against the Philadelphia Eagles[6] and on September 2, he was released from injured reserve after reaching an injury settlement.[7]
