PITTSBURGH (AP) -Steelers coach Mike Tomlin isn’t saying if the team has any interest in Larry Johnson, the former Penn State running back who was released by the Kansas City Chiefs.
Johnson, who would like to play in Pittsburgh, was cut Monday after being suspended by Kansas City for the second time in a year. The Steelers have long stayed away from signing troubled players, and they appear to be set at running back with starter Rashard Mendenhall and backup Willie Parker.
Tomlin says he doesn’t discuss free agents and focuses only on the players on his roster. He made similar comments when quarterback Michael Vick was on the market last summer. The Steelers had no interest in Vick.
