Steelers Getting Banged-up

Injuries are apart of training camp. But, it's out of control at Steelers camp at St. Vincent College in Latrobe. Steelers running back Rashard Mendenhall suffered a pulled hamstring Monday. Guard Maurkice Pouncey and linebacker Jason Worilds both have hamstring injuries. Pro bowl nose tackle Casy Hampton hurt his hamstring last Saturday and is limited in camp.
My doctor told me that nine times out of ten a hamstring injury is because your not in shape. I should know. And, then there's the hamstring injuries resulting from not stretching properly too. You see far fewer hamstring injuries in high school football then in the pros. It's a shame, because those guys are getting payed to be in shape.
