Steelers Moving On, Free Agents, Harrison Return?
By Kim Myers
Steelers season never truly ends here at Still Curtain. While the Pittsburgh Steelers are closing the book on the 2014 season we’ll be busy looking for mentions of your Black & Gold so we’ve got you covered. Here’s your Steelers Morning Huddle for Tuesday, Jan. 6th.
Old guys moving on
Ed Bouchette of the PPG lets us in on a sight he witnessed in the Steelers locker room following the 30-17 loss to the Baltimore Ravens. It was a long hug between Cameron Heyward and Brett Keisel, with tears flowing.
That signaled what could be the final departure of some longtime fixtures of the Steelers roster as this offseason could very well be the season where we say good bye to so many Steeler legends. Names like Keisel, Ike Taylor, Troy Polamalu and James Harrison could be gone for good this offseason. The team is meeting one last time on Monday afternoon before the offseason officially begins for them.
2015 Steelers Free Agents
Speaking of the offseason, we’re still more than two months away from the beginning of free agency but it’s never too early to take a look at who might be on their way out. ESPN’s Scott Brown compiled a list of Unrestricted and Restricted free agents for 2015.

Harrison might not be done
When James Harrison came out of retirement in mid-September to rejoin the Steelers following an injury to Jarvis Jones, he came with the notion that it would be “one and done.” Now, as Mike Prisuta tells us, Harrison could be talked into one more year.
"“I felt better at the end of the year than I did in the previous probably two, three years. That was something that kind of crept into my head, ‘You know, I’m actually feeling good,’ nowhere near what I thought I would feel.” – James Harrison"
