Steelers sign QB Leftwich Pittsburgh, PA (Sports Network) - The Pittsburgh Steelers agreed to terms with backup quarterback Byron Leftwich on a one-year contract Thursday. Financial terms of the deal were not disclosed. Leftwich missed all of 2011 after breaking his left arm in the preseason. During his nine-year career, he has spent three seasons as a member of Steelers (2008, 2010-11), throwing for 345 yards, two touchdowns and no interceptions in six games. Selected seventh overall by the Jaguars in 2003, Leftwich has appeared in 55 games -- 49 starts -- and thrown for 10,260 yards and 58 touchdowns. Last week, the Steelers signed longtime backup quarterback Charlie Batch to a one-year deal. 04/26 20:24:11 ET Powered by The Sports Network. |
