Pittsburgh Steelers’ Training Camp is not even a week in and already we have some movement on the roster and it comes as a bit of a surprise. Free agent outside linebacker Shawn Lemon, who had been on the PUP list, was cut.
The former Canadian Football League star was thought to put some pressure on some of the other guys at the OLB position because of his ability to get to the passer and create turnovers.
Lemon was on the PUP list due to an Achilles’ injury. A source close to the Steelers tells me that Lemon may have asked for his release.
