Steelers' Shaun Suisham: Still recovering from torn ACL
Shaun Suisham is still recovering from a torn ACL on his non-kicking leg, which ended his 2015-16 season, Mark Kaboly of TribLive.com reports.Suisham has yet to attempt a kick due to the injury he suffered over 10 months ago, and is unsure if he'll be ready for the late-July start of training camp. Chris Boswell, heading into his sophomore campaign, filled in for Suisham last season, converting 36 of 39 field-goal attempts and 27 of 28 extra-point attempts. The two are expected to compete for the starting job, but even if Suisham isn't able to win back the gig he's held for three seasons, he could find his way onto another team's roster given his impressive track record.

Steelers' Shaun Suisham: Expected to face competition
Shaun Suisham (knee) will have to fend off competition for the Pittsburgh Steelers' kicking job, Mark Kaboly of the Pittsburgh Tribune-Review reports.Susiham suffered a torn ACL in his non-kicking knee in August, causing him to miss the entire 2015 season. Rookie replacement Chris Boswell filled in more than capably, converting 36 of his 39 field-goal attempts and 27 of his 28 extra-point attempts between the regular season and playoffs. Suisham was excellent from 2012 to 2014, so he should at least have the opportunity to win back his job. Even if Boswell wins the battle, Suisham might find a landing spot with a different team.
