Outlook
In his first full season with the Steelers, kicker Shaun Suisham produced modest results – hitting 74.2% on field goals, which is his numbers from the previous two years and below current industry standards. The team appears to possibly be looking to bring in competition. They tried out, although didn’t sign, Dave Rayner. They had undrafted rookie Grant Ressell signed early on, but have since replaced him with Danny Hrappman, another rookie. At punter/holder, incumbent Jeremy Kapinos will face competition from undrafted rookie Drew Butler out of Georgia. Long snapper Greg Warren’s job appears to be safe. The Steelers ranked 18th in attempted kicking points in three of the past six years, including in 2011. In 2012, the offense which sets up the kicking will be overseen by new coordinator Todd Haley (Former Chiefs head coach).
