The Pittsburgh Tribune Website is reporting that Steelers Offensive Lineman Darnell Stapleton will undergo surgery on his troubling right knee. No time table is given for his return. With reports that Urbik seems a little lost (he is a rookie) I am looking for Trai Essex to earn his keep.

I hope Stapleton is not done for the season. He is a valuable swing man and needs to stay sharp as he may be a challenger for Center in 2010. Link is below;
