Steelers' Shaun Suisham kicks U.S. Citizenship through the uprights

Pittsburgh Steelers kicker Shaun Suisham has had a long six months while rehabbing a torn anterior cruciate ligament, but Wednesday must have been less of a grind.

Suisham on Wednesday became an American while at the U.S. Citizenship and Immigration Services's Pittsburgh-area branch.

Here's a picture of the Canada native courtesy of Steelers.com. He was with his family while becoming certified.
