Report: Max Starks Expects To Be Medically Cleared Around Taining Camp Time

Although seemingly not in the future plans of the Pittsburgh Steelers, Max Starks told Josina Anderson of ESPN that he's “just about two months away” from receiving medical clearance to resume football activities once again. Starks tore his right ACL in the AFC Wild Card game against the Denver Broncos. Starks has been giving updates all off-season and has expressed his...

The Steelers have revamped their offensive line via the draft. They recently moved Willie Colon to left guard, but at this time Max Starks seems to be the odd man out. The veteran free agent has yet to be contacted by the Steelers according to Mark Kaboly of the Pittsburgh Tribune-Review. “I have not had contact with management or anybody like that,” Starks said Friday while on...

Trai Essex and Jonathan Scott to compete with Mike Adams, Starks not contacted

The Steelers have a vacant left tackle position at the moment.  The best bet is that Mike Adams is going to fill that void.  He will have competition at that spot according to Mark Kaboly of the Pittsburgh Tribune Review.  Veterans Jonathan Scott and Trai Essex will compete with Adams for the starting spot. I do not like when guys are handed jobs without winning them out.  Even...

Max Starks Says He Has Yet To Hear From Steelers & Will Unlikely Be Ready By Camp

As much as I have been hoping and praying that Max Starks would be back in a Pittsburgh Steelers uniform by week one of the 2012 season, it is seeming more and more unlikely to happen. Mark Kaboly of the Pittsburgh Tribune-Review reports Saturday that he talked to the Steelers unrestricted free agent on Friday and that Starks told him that he has not had contact with management or...

Mike Adam’s Success Could Determine Max Starks’ Future with Steelers

During the 2010 season rookie Maurkice Pouncey was the Steelers top center. In 2011 Marcus Gilbert was the top right tackle following a week one injury to Willie Colon. Heading into the 2012 season it seems first round pick David DeCastro is set to continue the trend by starting at right guard as a Continue

Max Starks Back Running Now On Surgically Repaired ACL

I posted on Tuesday about Max Starks and how his No.78 jersey may or may not have been issued thus far to the new Pittsburgh Steelers rookies. I have been passing along any and all updates on the free agent tackle as he looks to recover from a torn ACL he suffered in the AFC Wild Card game against the Denver Broncos, and last night he gave me an update on his status.

A Sign? Steelers Yet To Reissue Max Starks Jersey Number 78

Before reading this post I suggest that all of you put on your Steelers Depot black and gold tin foil hats. Is everyone ready? The Pittsburgh Steelers 2012 draft is now behind us and the undrafted free agents have been identified. On Monday we treated to the annual issuing of jersey numbers to all of the rookies and we were slapped with the reality that the No. 51 jersey that...

Max Starks to be ready by mid July

Max Starks tweeted that his rehab is going well and hopes to be ready by July.  That is good news for Starks.  He can get into someone’s camp and make an impact on a team.  Could that team be the Steelers?  It is possible but it will depend on the draft. The Steelers head into the draft with Marcus Gilbert at Left Tackle and Willie Colon at right.  If the Steelers draft...

Starks uncertain of future with Steelers

The Pittsburgh Steelers are in a holding pattern with their starting left tackle. Speaking with me and co-host Jim Miller on Sirius XM NFL Radio, Max Starks said Friday that he isn't expecting to talk about a new contract with the Steelers until he makes more strides in recovering from a torn anterior cruciate ligament. Injured in a first-round playoff loss to Denver, Starks...

The Unknown Leader of the Pittsburgh Steelers

It is rare in today’s NFL that the success of a team or turning point for them in a season can be traced back to the play of an offensive lineman, but that is exactly what has happened for the Pittsburgh Steelers this season. In the offseason the franchise made a very uncharacteristic mistake with their personnel, they decided to get rid of their best offensive lineman, Max...
