Steelers to chat with Larry Foote on Monday

The Steelers and Larry Foote are going to have a sit down on Monday, and from there it’ll likely be up to him to see if he wants to come back to the team that he asked to leave just a season ago. Once again, he’d add depth to a defense that seemed to get beat up in the fourth quarter of games.

Free Agent linebacker Larry Foote will visit the Steelers offices Monday and, if he passes a physical, could reach an agreement to rejoin his former team, the Post-Gazette has learned. Foote, who left the Steelers after the 2008 season to play with one year with the Detroit Lions, visited with the Arizona Cardinals yesterday and the Washington Redskins on Tuesday without agreeing to a contract. Foote would be a backup with the Steelers, but he would also give them more flexibility at the linebacker position in case of injury at outside linebacker.
