    Art Rooney II: ‘We’re Not Looking To Trade Martavis’

    Pittsburgh Steelers team president Art Rooney II has finally addressed the report regarding wide receiver Martavis Bryant wanting to be traded.
    “We’re not looking to trade Martavis,” Rooney told the Pittsburgh Post-Gazette, according to Gerry Dulac. “He was out of football for a year. Maybe some of us had higher expectations how quickly he could get back up to full speed, but he’s making progress.”

    Why not a rumor that Le'Veon wants to be traded while we are on the subject of Steelers requesting trades?

    Le'Veon wants to be traded to the Cleveland Browns and the Steelers are asking for Josh Gordon in return so Martavis can have a smoking partner

    My best friend's sister's boyfriend's brother's girlfriend heard from this guy who knows this kid who's going with the girl who saw Ryan Shazier pass out at 31 Flavors.

    Ben and Todd Haley are fighting again because Ben wants to call his own plays and run the no-huddle all game long

    But, before he did, he looked at one kid and told him, "Get out of the way, you don't have boobs."

    I honestly don't have a problem with that. Doing so shows the choice was purely based on ethics/team concerns.

    I totally do if it turns around to bite them in the ass a second time. They’ve already done it once...let’s not repeat history here...regardless, hoping Bryant works it out...

    Talk and speculation.

    He's not going anywhere this season except to the bench, or returning (hopefully when he shuts his mouth) to the field.

    Ian-make-up-a-Sunday-Report, how does this guy keep his job? I mean if the Steelers did (and they won't) trade Bryant this year, they surely wouldn't send him to NE!

    Any trade requests are not high on Tomlin's "damn agenda"!

Anywho, you wanna unload Marteeeavush Breeeaaant, did I get that right? Don't really know alot about him, for like a conditional 7th? Or maybe a 9th? What's that you said, the draft doesn't have 9 rounds? Well, shoot! Don't I look silly. I guess I'll just call those guys who run the Browns.

    Colbert in Detroit tonight? Cover story will be he is there to watch the game but clearly the mission is to finish up a trade of Bryant for the rights to Megatron

    Teams reportedly are seeking rights to Calvin Johnson from Lions

    Megatron has drawn interest from two teams that have spoken to the Detroit Lions, who hold the rights to him, about a possible trade, ESPN reports. Of course, any return would require the cooperation of Johnson and there’s no sign that he is interested in resuming his career
