Well, Limas Sweed’s Achilles injury appears to be bad enough to warrant his being placed on the Injured Reserve list. As myself and my fellow bloggers have surmised, this likely is the end of Sweed’s career with the Steelers, and what a disappointment it will have been if that’s so. Sweed had a ton of potential to be a great NFL wide receiver, being fast, strong, and able to get open against defenders. Unfortunately, he could just never manage to hang onto the ball.
I sincerely hope Sweed can stay on the roster through next season. He needs another chance to turn his career around.
