Doug Legursky was signed by the Pittsburgh Steelers as an undrafted free agent in 2008, spending some time with the team on the practice squad during that season. Both he and fellow undrafted free agent Ramon Foster managed to make the 53-man roster the following year, and Legursky would spent the next four seasons with the Steelers, starting 17 games in the process.
He played in and started 10 games during the 2011 season when he was the primary starting guard, only missing out on starts due to injury. In fact, injury was a common theme for Legursky, which also helped to limit him to 14 games over the past two years with Buffalo and San Diego.
