Only reason i dont agree with this is because he loses money each week he doesnt show up. Plus that could be cap space steelers can use for a mid season pick up! Maybe we can sneaky a key defensive player before the trade deadline with that space

As far as the Steelers' loyalty, why don't you give Heath Miller a call???  After all he did for them, including two Super Bowl rings, he was forced to retire - or get released because they wanted to dump salary.  SMH
Faced with his choice?! Being the highest paid back in the league wasn't enough? Because he was hung up on guaranteed money? He put himself into that situation by smoking dope. He's only as good as his offensive line and his TD production was half of what Gurley's was anyways. At this point he can write a rap song about how mistreated he was and earn money that way for all I care

So the new chapter in this saga is the news steelers are listening to trade offers.

Should of listened for the last 18 months, instead of now. Itll be difficult to get anything for a player who shows 0 interest in playing this season

And one blunt away from year long suspension, along with contract demands... won’t find anyone... maybe a 6th round pick and a practice squad punter lol

Only 7-8 teams could actually take him on money wise.  So they have a narrow window to make a deal happen.

I can see Oakland making a strong attempt. If we can get 1 of their 2 1st round picks I would be happy.

If we somehow steal 2 it will be christmas

Everything I've read says the Steelers will be lucky to get a second round pick for him
