Why Did Blount Get Booted From Pittsburgh? Video Shows RB Push OC Todd Haley to the Ground

LeGarrette Blount

Many wondered why the Pittsburgh Steelers cut running back LeGarrette Blount after 12 weeks. A video posted by Steelers Depot may have shone some light on the situation.

The video shows offensive coordinator Todd Haley get run into by Antonio Brown and Titans defensive back Jason McCourty.

Haley falls back toward Blount who is standing behind him.

Rather than help break his fall, Blount shoves Haley to the ground.

While we’re not saying this is why Blount was cut, it’s pretty clear from the video that there isn’t much love lost between the OC and the RB.
