Ladarius Green Released by Steelers After 1 Season Due to Failed Physical
The Pittsburgh Steelers have released tight end Ladarius Green one year into a four-year contract after he failed a physical.
Teresa Varley of the Steelers' official website confirmed Green's release, adding it came "with the designation failed physical."
The 26-year-old Green only played in six games for the Steelers last season. He started 2016 on the physically unable to perform list after having offseason ankle surgery and battling headaches stemming from two concussions in a span of two weeks during the 2015 season with the San Diego Chargers.
