OT: Shaun Suisham

[PennStateNate]

someone explain to me why Suisham played tonight?

Early word is he may be lost for significant time.

 

[Lion8286]

Um maybe he played tonight because he is the only kicker the Steelers have on their roster??

 

[PennStateNate]

Wing can kick FG.

You give most of your starters the night off, why not your accurate FG Kicker? What does he have to prove?

 

[Lion8286]

• Pretty sure someone has to do kickoffs.

Ficken's available. I thought he was in the Chief's camp but CJF said in his presser on Thursday that Sam was working out at Lasch and was surprised he's not in an NFL camp.

I'm sure Wing could kickoff too. At St Vincent he was kicking FG and word was he was going to do it in the PS.

Not sure why you would play with veteran Kicker in the PS.

Love Ficken, but he is no Suisham. Inconsistent.

i didn't see the play...did he try to make a tackle?

It's a torn ACL according to the PG. Ficken, IMHO, can't kick off which would force you to have two kickers on the roster.
