The Pittsburgh Steelers parted ways with longtime veteran kicker Shaun Suisham on Friday due to an injury setback and it appears as though his NFL career is now over.
Suisham released a long statement on Friday following his release from the Steelers.
“Unfortunately, the injury I sustained in the Pro Football Hall of Fame Game last preseason was catastrophic and has proven to be critical to continuing my career. My journey in the NFL has come to a crossroads.
I was raised in Wallaceburg, Ontario, as a hockey player and have been on an improbable 16-year journey as a kicker, competing at the highest level.
