The Steelers had had enough of his off field antics to the point where they were willing to cut him. If he was the same type of citizen Heinz Ward is...the Steelers buck up and give him an extension. But they no longer wanted him as part of their organization it had nothing, absolutely nothing to do with not wanting to pay him as a player. It was about getting rid of the person off the field.
