The Pittsburgh Steelers are still undefeated. Yet, there are some players I wish were still with the Steelers.
Not every player on this list is still playing in the NFL. In fact, two of the players on this list were terrific performers for the Steelers, but injuries cut their careers far too short. It isn’t just that they would be missed. Quite frankly, the Steelers just don’t have a lot of holes on their roster for this season. I don’t think any of these players would be replacing someone who is entirely inadequate. At the same time, I do view them as upgrades, not just now but past this season as well.
I decided on a player on offense, defense, and special teams. The Steelers have become the best complimentary team in football between all 3 phases of the game and the players I am about to name would help in each phase. They fit with what makes this team so good, and I have fond memories of all of them.
For 2 of these players, I know we will never see them suit up for the black and gold again. There is a slight chance something could happen and the first player on my list makes his way back to Pittsburgh. He left to make his money and with the NFL being a business I do not blame him at all, but I could see him somehow coming back to the Steelers to end his career where it started.
