More bad news for Steelers fans on the quarterback front. Dennis Dixon has been diagnosed with torn lateral meniscus cartilage, according to several news outlets. Dixon’s play up until his injury had not been stellar, but he had shown signs of the ability that could have won him the Heisman a few years ago, and was felt by some to be the Steelers best option at signal caller until Ben’s return.

It appears to be Charlie Batch’s job now, for the time being of course. The Steelers also resigned the roster space casualty of last week, Byron Leftwich, who was let go to make room for depth at other positions, while Leftwich was unable to play due to injury. Unless Byron’s knee has healed to the point of confidence from the coaches, I would expect him to be the back up this week to Batch.

Hey, only two more weeks until Ben gets back.
