The team had hired the veteran last season, following a modification in the kickoff rules, seeking to add dynamism to the game.

He also managed 12 receptions on 14 attempts, adding 80 yards and a touchdown.\n\nThe player did not participate in the team&#8217;s preseason activities and was also absent from the first four training sessions of this season&#8217;s training camp.","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Steelers Cut Cordarrelle Patterson The Pittsburgh Steelers have decided to dispense with the services of the outstanding returner Cordarrelle Patterson, as announced by the player himself through his social media on Monday.
