Steelers place Anthony Chickillo on commissioner’s exempt list

The move we were all expecting from the Pittsburgh Steelers came on Wednesday. The team announced they were placing outside linebacker Anthony Chickillo on the commissioner’s exempt list pending his legal issues surrounding an arrest over the weekend.

To replace Chickillo on the 53-man roster, Pittsburgh signed Jayrone Elliott. This will be the third time since mid-August that Elliott has been signed by the Steelers.

In other team news, former Steelers linebacker Tuzar Skipper was not claimed on waivers and is now a free agent. The Steelers might want to consider adding Skipper to bolster the questionable depth at outside linebacker.
