Hardest hitter pound for pound in Steelers' history. My favorite defensive player to watch after Lambert, Hamm, Polamalu and Mean Joe.

[Count Steeler]

Thanks for the hits, Ryan. Hope you have a good broadcasting career.

[Butch]

Ryan you were a Great Steeler and we cheer all the hits you have delived in our cause. Wishing you the best in your future endevors.

[zulater]

Good guy, had a really nice run with the Steelers. Wish him nothing but the best. :hatsoff:

[steelerdude15]

Even though he started to irritate me when he was interviewed and on t.v., he still was a good guy and a good football player. He did a lot for this team and was a hard hitter. Good luck Ryan and thanks for the memories.

Classy welcome to Mitchell and classy goodbye to the Steelers

Here's a guy who almost DIED for playing football, recovered, and came back and played his heart out for the black and gold. Thanks for the memories, Ryan. Your jersey hangs with pride in my closet amongst some of the best and hardest hitters of the black and gold....Hines, Harrison, Franco, and Troy.

I'm going to miss the hits he delivered! He might have lost a step in defending, but any offensive player he hit would think twice about going around him after that.

[steel9guy]

Thanks Ryan!!! Will miss you at training camp this year.

[Randy06]

Wish him the best.

[stillers4me]

Training camp!! I'm going to miss looking to see what new socks and backpack he has! :(

[stillers4me]

Everyyear, it gets harder and harder to recognise players at training camp. I will truly miss these faces. (from my own training camp collection) Thanks to each of them for the memories and their contributions over the years. :applaudit:

Clark was, and still is my favorite modern day Steeler. I don't think that many would argue against the thought that he was a real Steeler, when not all that has worn the Black and Gold I can say that about. His dedication to the game, the team, and the fans have been above and beyond the call of duty. What he may have lacked in talent he has made up for in intensity. The guy was just flat out a football player. I personally will miss seeing him in a Steeler uniform, and dread the day I see him in one supplied by another team, but what ever happens he will always be a Steeler to me.

[ALLD]

There was no stink of Washington Redskins on him when he came over either.

[steelerdude15]

I'm going to miss the hits he delivered! He might have lost a step in defending, but any offensive player he hit would think twice about going around him after that.

Every time he would just flat out nail someone, I would worry that he wouldn't get back up. He just nailed people and it could be scary to see.

[86WARD]

He got a lot of criticism over the years he was here...he was a good player, good leader and definitely one of Colberts better signings. I'll miss him...he wasn't nearly as "bad" as some made him out to be at times...

Plus he knew what to expect from Troy...

[steel striker]

I'll miss Ryan seemed like a real good guy and, was a good player

[SteelMember]

He had great toughness, and was a great find for us after Hope left.

The Steelers will miss "him"... but not his twitter account. :chuckle:

[stillers4me]

He was the ying to Troy's yang.

[Dwinsgames]

it started as Classy ....


now not so much , more like sour grapes ...

Not at all RT @MTSherman78 (https://twitter.com/MTSherman78): Hypothetically if the steelers could sign you as a backup would you consider. #justcurious (https://twitter.com/search?q=%23justcurious&src=hash) #cantletgo#25


if it is any consolation I am glad he is gone , slow , out of pos. big mouth that thinks his game is now what it was 4-5 years ago ...quite frankly its not close to it .

Thanks Ryan for your time, effort and all the class you displayed .......stay cool !

[slashsteel]

Training camp won't be the same as Ryan always stayed out intermingling with the Steeler fans far past any other player.........

Thank you for your time Ryan you will be missed.

My favorite modern day Steeler is going to the Redskins? I'm going to go sit in the closet for a few minutes.

I have 2 more jerseys hanging in silence this year in my closet.


Locker room Larry is officailly hittin' the road.

Retirement has to be better than that!

[steelreserve]

Well, the Redskins are where he came from, so that makes sense ... can't see how it actually helps either party involved, but best of luck to him.

That makes me very, very sad. It means one of the greats is officially washed up :(

Exactly. His tank's pretty much empty at this point. However, it is the same team that threw $100 mil at Haynesworth several years back. The Redskins probably haven't made an intelligent personnel move since Beathard was still the GM.

Wait ... you mean giving up half a draft of all first-rounders wasn't worth it to get RG3? Come on! But RG3!

[86WARD]

Good for him. Not a bad fit...

[tube517]

Not surprised. It's where he started.

The next thing we will be seeing is the Redskins going the the entire draft with one 5th round pick. Guess they are going back to their old ways.
