We recently marked the passing of two years since Pittsburgh Steelers inside linebacker Ryan Shazier’s injury. Back in December of 2017, early in a primetime game against the Cincinnati Bengals, the two-time Pro Bowler suffered a severe spinal injury that temporarily left him paralyzed from the waist down.
What many people may forget is that he is still on the roster as a member of the team. For the past two seasons, the Steelers have kept him on the Physically Unable to Perform List as a player, which has allowed him to be involved in everything except for on-field participation.
