Pittsburgh signs Flozell Adams



Five-time Pro Bowler Flozell Adams got national media attention last season for two things, at times not being able to protect Tony Romo's backside and secondly, tripping Giants defensive end Justin Tuck when he got beat.

Thursday the Pittsburgh Steelers signed the 35-year old tackle to a two-year contract. To Adams credit, his departure from Dallas was less about his ability and more about his $6.5 million salary.

Adams will replace right tackle Willie Colon who will miss the season with a torn Achilles tendon. It has not been determined if Adams will play right tackle for the Steelers, or if current starting left tackle Max Starks will play right tackle and Adams staying with the position he has played his entire career at.
