While most of the attention of the day will understandably be paid to a soon-to-be former Pittsburgh Steelers player who has recently shown little to no interest in playing football, let alone in being a part of a team, I thought it might be refreshing to talk about a couple of other former Steelers who are playing football right now and are just grateful for the opportunity.
