Hidden in all the fodder surrounding the ground-breaking news out of Pittsburgh yesterday, the team also released the latest version of their depth chart.
And in that depth chart, the team removed a simple two-letter word that tells you all you need to know about the future of one of the offense highest-paid players:
Chuks Okorfaor Officially Benched
Even though the teams starting RT for the past three seasons hasn't played in over three weeks, Okorafor was still listed as the co-starter on the depth chart along with Broderick Jones.
But over those three games, the Steelers have amassed 160 yards or more per game on the ground.
A coincidence, I think not:
And to be clear, Okorafor wasn't benched based on performance, but rather for his off-the-field behavior.
So for someone who was just supposed to bridge the gap while Okorafor was being disciplined while he learned the ropes at LT…
Jones took the opportunity and ran with it, all but signaling the end for Chuks Okorafor's tenure in Pittsburgh.
