Pittsburgh Steelers Rumors: Michael Vick & Other Players Team Must Cut To Succeed In 2016

Much like Fitzgerald Toussaint couldn't hold onto the ball in the Steelers' 23-16 loss to the Broncos on Sunday, Pittsburgh shouldn't hold onto Michael Vick in 2016.

Below is a complete list of players the team should sever ties with in 2016.

Joey Porter Did Nothing Wrong According To Ben Roethlisberger

Michael Vick

If 2016 taught the NFL anything, it's that you need a quality backup QB.

Michael Vick isn't that.

The 35-year-old is as injury prone as the man he's supposed to cover (Ben Roethlisberger), finishing the season as an inactive. Landry Jones proved to be more effective under center -- throwing for more yards, TDs and being sacked eight less times.

Vick is still a serviceable third option in the NFL, but that's a role he must be willing to accept first. It makes sense for both parties to part ways.

Jordan Todman

Jordan Todman did little to merit another look in 2016. The UConn alum saw just 13 offensive snaps all season. Only five more came his way in Sunday's loss, culminating in six yards.

With Le'Veon Bell (torn MCL) and DeAngelo Williams (foot) succumbing to injury this season, the Steelers need all the productive RBs they can get. Todman shouldn't be a part of that plan.

Cortez Allen

There's only so many knee injuries Cortez Allen can survive.

The Steelers CB was placed on the injured reserve list for the second straight year. Since he was drafted in 2011, Allen has only made 18 out of a possible 80 starts.
