    The Pittsburgh Steelers, with a Hines Ward roster-bonus deadline fast approaching, have decided not to keep the veteran receiver, the NFL Network has reported, citing unnamed sources.

    Ward, who lost his starting job in 2011, was scheduled to make $4 million in the last two years of his contract but has said he was willing to take a pay cut.

    A decision is required by March 1 to satisfy a clause in his contract.

    "I plan on playing with the Pittsburgh Steelers and going from there," Ward said last Thursday during Super Bowl week.

    Speaking at the media center in Indianapolis, Ward called reports about his possible retirement "rumors," reiterating he wants to play next season.

    Asked if he wanted to play three, four or five more years, the 35-year-old Ward laughed and said, "I don't know about that long."

    Information from ESPN.com's Jamison Hensley was used in this report.

    The only thing he really possesses that this offense needs is leadership, other than that, we already have 2 WR under 6’ that are excel in short to medium routes. We NEED a WR that can stretch the field and help draw away the double team from Holmes. Ward will not do that.

    If Braylon is healthy, he is a MUCH better option.

    The last thing we need is a slow receiver. The very last thing.

    ...to his credit, it's hard for a wide receiver to get a dirty player rap, which he has, from taking players heads off when blocking and if the offense turns the ball over he ain't skered to through down and kill somebody.

    Cromartie should watch some game film on him.

    Actually I wish all our wide receivers played like Hines Ward. Braylon came the closest.
