The Facts: Suisham admitted recently he wasn't ready to kick. The Steelers decided Friday to not wait for him. The team announced they were releasing Suisham with a failed physical designation, and signing running back Brandon Johnson to fill the roster spot.
Diehards Line:
Suisham tore his ACL last year in the preseason, and wasn’t sure he was going to be able to kick when training camp opened. Now, he’s going to have to get himself well on his own, and look for another job. The Steelers now turn to Chris Boswell, who kicked reasonable well for them after they signed him last October.
