Dan Marino Talks About Considering Signing With Steelers In 2000

After bypassing a chance to select quarterback Dan Marino in the 1983 NFL Draft, fans of the Pittsburgh Steelers have wondered ever since what may have happened had the University of Pittsburgh product wound up playing in the black and gold. While Marino did go on to spend his entire NFL career with the Miami Dolphins, he recently stated in an interview with USA Today that he considered continuing playing in 2000 following him voiding the final two years of his then-current contract that February.

“I definitely thought about it, to be honest with you,” Marino said in the interview.
