Pittsburgh Steelers sign kicker Suisham four years

It's not easy finding a kicker that does well in Pittsburgh. So the Steelers want to keep the guy they have.

The team announced Friday that they extended Shaun Suisham's contract for four years through the 2018 season. Suisham ranks first in Steelers history with a 87.2 percent conversion mark, going over 90 percent in 2013.

Like many kickers, Suisham took time to settle in to his career after some rocky times in Dallas and Washington initially. With this move, the Steelers should now be considered the favorites to win the Super Bowl.
