Some noise has been made this week about the possible return of one of the NFL’s dirtiest players, Cincinnati Bengals’ linebacker Vontaze Burfict in their division match-up with the Steelers.
I’m not as concerned with Burfict (although, keep him away from Ben’s knees if they both play) as I am a member of the Steelers’ team, Mike Mitchell.
Mitchell has had a few dust-ups since joining the Steelers as a free agent from Carolina last year. The first came in the closing minutes of a game against the Jets last year, when Mitchell attempted to leap the line as the Jet’s QB Michael Vick was kneeling on the ball to run out the clock.
