It wasn’t exactly the ideal way for Corliss Waitman to get another opportunity in the NFL, but the veteran punter is running with his opportunity in Pittsburgh following Cameron Johnston’s serious knee injury suffered in the season opener.
After Johnston went down in gruesome fashion late in the Week 1 win in Atlanta, the Steelers had to pivot quickly to find an answer at punter, and they turned to a familiar face in Waitman, signing the veteran to a two-year deal.
In two games with the Steelers, Corliss Waitman has answered the bell and has punted the football quite well for the Steelers.
