Maurkice Pouncey Spending Down Time Pulling Two-A-Day Workouts

When you have something taken away from you, you tend to cling to it harder than ever should you be fortunate enough to get it back. That seems to be the case for Pittsburgh Steelers center Maurkice Pouncey, who despite having ample down time right now leading up to training camp is remaining behind at the Steelers’ facility.

Fans of the team will be well aware about his injury history, as he has missed not just one, but two full seasons, barring eight snaps. During the first quarter of the season opener in 2013, Pouncey suffered a torn ACL after right guard David DeCastro accidentally executed a chop block into the back of his leg.
