More than six years after he infamously walked off the field in a middle of a game and ultimately walked right onto the Super Bowl winning New England Patriots in the process, former Pittsburgh Steelers’ running back LeGarrette Blount revealed the real reason behind the fallout in Pittsburgh in 2014.
Appearing on the PM Team show of Chris Mueller and Andrew Filliponi on 93.7 The Fan Wednesday afternoon from radio row in Los Angeles, Blount stated that it was then-offensive coordinator Todd Haley that drove him from Pittsburgh, not head coach Mike Tomlin or his relationship with former Steelers’ running back Le’Veon Bell that caused him to walk off the field in the middle of the November 17, 2014 Monday Night Football matchup with the Tennessee Titans in Nashville.
