Stephon Tuitt
DE -
Week 10 Outlook
Availability
Steelers DE Stephon Tuitt announced his retirement from the NFL Wednesday.
Fantasy Impact
Tuitt was drafted by Pittsburgh in round two of the 2014 NFL Draft. He missed all of last season after being placed on injured knee due to a knee injury. He also dealt with the death of his brother. Tuitt is only 29 years old.
Stephon Tuitt spent a lot of time in the Seattle backfield today, with four total tackles, two TFLs, two and a half sacks, and three QB hits.
Fantasy Impact
Tuitt's fantastic outing likely occurred on the waiver wire, and he should remain there despite his production. Unless he can develop any semblance of consistency, rest easy knowing these performances are sporadic in nature.
Steelers defensive end Stephon Tuitt (elbow) has been ruled out for Sunday’s game against the Broncos.
Fantasy Impact
Tuitt was unable to practice all week and will be missing his second consecutive game. He is dealing with a hyperextended elbow that he suffered in the Week 10 Thursday night game against the Panthers. Tyson Alualu is expected to start in his absence.
