Steelers to sign kicker Chris Boswell to replace Josh Scobee

The Steelers kicking carousel continues.

After watching their kicker miss four field goals in the season's first four games, the Steelers will sign free agent Chris Boswell to replace Josh Scobee. Boswell, who was with the Giants during this past training camp, worked out with the Steelers Saturday morning.

Instead of a sign that says "Do Not Disturb" I need one that says "Already Disturbed Proceed With Caution."

Caldwell gets a gold star for this one.

Scobee has been cut

It will be interesting to see how the rookie does knowing he has to make 80% of his kicks including the ones between 40-50 yards.

Jags should sign Scobee when they play the squeelers and let him kick the game winner haha

Poor guy. I genuinely feel bad for him.

That being said, thanks for the 6th rounder! And to think people were so upset when we traded him

IT WAS ALWAYS THE JAGS

Scobee will make $4mil guaranteed and his offseason starts 12 weeks early. Kinda hard to feel bad for the guy. He had makeable FGs and blew it. Now he gets to play golf 12 months a year.

Probably flying back to Florida tonight. Getting paid to play some golf.

He could be added to the broadcast team.

Now he can retire and drive his James bond car.

He actually might get another look, should a desperate situation arise. Personally, I think he has something left in the tank. It's kinda ironic that someone had asked him a week before he was traded what his least favorite stadium to kick was. He said Heinz Field...

If he is done, I wish him the best. He did us really well here for a long time. His last gift to Jax was a 6th round draft pick. Pretty solid, if you ask me.

He's far from done.

I'm betting he'll get signed somewhere else.

Yep. He'll be in Tampa by the end of next week.

That is what I think as well. The Bucs kicker is really bad.
