It’s not Cole Holcomb’s fault. Really, it’s not. On the surface, the Pittsburgh Steelers signing Holcomb to a three-year deal is a good and necessary move, their inside linebacker room looking shallow with Devin Bush and Marcus Allen hitting free agency and Robert Spillane surprisingly getting a solid deal from Las Vegas. It didn’t leave much for Pittsburgh to work with.
I’ve gotten my hopes up before. And like Michael Scott, I’m ready to get hurt again.
Pittsburgh’s been down this path. Many times. Ever since Ryan Shazier’s tragic injury, the team has thrown plenty of options at the wall.
