Steelers release statement on LB Anthony Chickillo

The Pittsburgh Steelers find them somewhat embroiled in some drama with the news that Steelers linebacker Anthony Chickillo. Chickillo was arrested over the weekend for an altercation and the team was forced to release a statement about it.

In regard to the recent incident involving Anthony Chickillo, we will continue to gather information, and we will fully cooperate with the NFL’s investigation. Any discipline involving the player will be determined after the gathering of further information from law enforcement and the League Office.

It seems the Steelers are going to let the system play out rather than being proactive about Chickillo and his situation. This doesn’t mean he will play on Monday night against the Miami Dolphins but it seems Pittsburgh will not rush to judgment in terms of releasing Chickillo before things play out.
