When the Pittsburgh Steelers spent a draft pick on a punter, it signaled immediate notice that long-time punter Jordan Berry’s days could be numbered as one of the team’s specialists. That was confirmed on Monday after practice, when it was reported that the Steelers were releasing Berry for the second time, after six seasons with the team.
