Steelers say goodbye to Shaun Suisham

On Friday afternoon the team announced that they have released kicker Shaun Suisham with the designation of Failed Physical.

Suisham joined the Steelers in 2010 after originally being signed by Pittsburgh in 2005 as an undrafted free agent out of Bowling Green. Suisham bounced around the league for a time before landing back with the Steelers where he converted 124-of-141 field goal attempts and every one of his 173 extra point attempts.

Suisham tore his ACL last season and spent 2015 on Injured Reserve after signing a four-year contract extension in 2014. The Steelers went through an almost laughable revolving door at kicker before finding Chris Boswell, who had never made it onto a regular-season roster before.
