Stephon Tuitt signed his contract on Saturday and all of Steeler Nation rejoiced! The Steelers locked up another great young player for 6 more years. Tuitt had 2 tremendous plays to start the season, and both were in the backfield. The first play of the game on defense, he nearly sacked Kizer, as he just missed him while lunging toward him. The next play he sniffed out the run, shot the gap and tackled the running back for a 5 yard loss. That was the end of his day.

Tuitt was diagnosed with a bicep injury. That was terrible news for a young star, just starting the new season, with his new contract. He could have been lost for the year! Fortunately, the football gods smiled down on Stephon and left him with only a mild bicep injury. One that he is expected to recover from within the next 3 weeks. With a collective breath of relief, Steeler fans can now again rejoice, since the young defensive end will be playing again soon.
