PITTSBURGH (AP) – The Pittsburgh Steelers’ new-look offensive line won’t include right tackle Zach Banner. The team cut the charismatic Banner in a move that will save them $5 million against the salary cap. The decision ends Banner’s comeback bid from a torn ACL that cost him two seasons and eventually his starting job. The decision to release Banner came after the Steelers re-signed tackle Chukwuma Okorafor to a three-year contract. Pittsburgh also brought back quarterback Dwayne Haskins, who signed a one-year contract. Haskins will compete with Mason Rudolph and Mitch Trubisky for the right to take over the starting job created when Ben Roethlisberger retired.
