Free Agent QB Troy Smith, Heisman Winner, Not Giving Up NFL Dream
The Pittsburgh Steelers' June release of Troy Smith was another cruel blow for the former Heisman Trophy winner, who was once seen as a guy who could compete to start in Baltimore. He started a few games under Mike Singletary and looked like a reasonable backup quarterback at worst. But he's no longer in the league, and it's fair to wonder if he'll ever get another...

Which Position Will The Steelers Add To With One Roster Spot Now Open?

There was some buzz around Steeler Nation earlier this year when the Steelers signed journeyman QB Troy Smith to a reserve contract.

Steelers Release QB Troy Smith

The move now means that the Steelers have decided to take Jerrod Johnson to training camp with them as their fourth quarterback. Carrying five quarterbacks in camp was just not likely...
