Who Will Kick For The Steelers

Who will be the  kicker for the Steelers in 2016?  That is just one of the decisions the Black and Gold  will have to make in the off season.  They went through four of them due to injury and lack of results. It all started in the Hall of Fame game in August when their All Pro Kicker Sean Suisham tore up his knee trying to make a tackle.  It ended when rookie kicker Chris Boswell made 29-of-32 field goals. He lead the league in field goals and in points scored 113.  Boswell is 26, a rookie,and unflappable.   Sean Suisham is a decade older,  established kicker, and had more kickoffs for touch-backs than Boswell. The big element is cost. Suisham’s 2016 cap hit is 3.5m.  Boswell 525 thousand. One factor to consider is if the Steelers cut Suisham the 3.5 m
