Do you have a link to the article?

Where is Jered Rotkofsky? UFL season is over.

Are you sure you didn't mistakenly look at an article from last year? It is one year to the day that he was put on IR for his torn ACL suffered on the extra point of the Green Bay game.

I was gonna say - are they sure they had the right year? This is a link about them signing Retkofsky to replace him from December 22, 2009, almost one year ago to the day: Link (http://www.espn.go.com/blog/afcnorth/tag?name=greg-warren)

It's blocked at my work, so I can't read it myself.

National Football Post is reporting it on their site, per BF's link and followed the chain to here:

http://64.246.64.33/merge/tsnform.aspx?c=footballpost&page=nfl/teams/082/team.aspx?id=082

Very strange that one year exactly to the date, that he is on IR again.

I've been listening to Burgh radio sports talk most of the day and they have not mentioned anything about it.

If it's not on the official website by now, then he isn't on IR.

I think whoever wrote that article found last years info by mistake.

Me too. That's why it's a little confusing. Nothing on Bouchette's PG+ site either.

Well, just in case, let's start training Matt Spaeth to long snap. He's gotta be useful for something! :heh:

It's listed on NFL.com...If this is true, I think we need to cut Warren from the team for good. This is his 3rd season in a row of going on IR because of a torn ACL. That's really serious, and we can just use retkofsky or someone else anyways instead of wasting our time with Warren

I would take this with a grain of salt...the only place I've seen it was on the 2 sites linked...none of the following are reporting it Steelers.com, NFL.com, different Pitt newspapers, none of the Steelers "insiders", etc. I have a feeling it was last years news and one site linked it then another and another and they think its new but its not/etc...because the dates are identical to last year. Until the Steelers confirm it...i doubt its true.

Yeah they are

It says he tore his right ACL on Tuesday.

Last year he tore his left ACL on the same date.

Different, but i agree, very suspicious lol.

I'm not seeing it...the last "transaction" is Sep to IR. And the Steelers havent said anything so i do believe we can label this "myth" BUSTED...haha.

There's no way this can be true. If it was, they would have signed Retofsky by now since it's a short week.

I hear tell Harrison has been boning up on his long snapping skills. :chuckle:
