It is no secret that the Pittsburgh Steelers have a situation on their hands at the cornerback position this season. Many defensive backs have made stops in Pittsburgh before moving on in their careers in the NFL and elsewhere. The most recent to do so was Brice McCain. After a year in Pittsburgh where he recorded a career high three interceptions, he moved on to the sunny skies of Miami and is currently battling for a starting position with the Dolphins.
The Steelers did not make much of an effort to retain him when the free agency market started up in the spring.
