Ward decision reportedly not about money
Hines Ward - WR - Pittsburgh Steelers
Feb. 11, 2012 - 10:35 AM ET
According to the Pittsburgh Tribune-Review's Mark Kaboly, the decision will be performance-based if Hines Ward is released by the Steelers.
Even if Ward agrees to dramatically slash his $4 million 2012 salary, it doesn't sound like he'll be back for a 15th season in Pittsburgh. Unless he draws interest for his leadership, there's a good chance Ward could be forced to retire if cut loose by the only team he's ever played for.
