Steelers WR Hines Ward To Retire If He Wins Super Bowl XLV?
According to Mark Kaboly of the , Steelers wide receiver Hines Ward may retire if Pittsburgh wins Super Bowl XLV
“My mom asked me that the other day. I really haven’t thought about it, to be honest,” Ward said. “I don’t want to make an emotional decision based off that.”
Ward’s former teammate, running back Jerome Bettis, retired five years ago after the Steelers win over the Seattle Seahawks in Super Bowl XL.
“I know Jerome went out on top and stuff like that,” Ward said. “I really haven’t thought about it. I just want to be singly focused on winning this ballgame and figure out what is going to happen after that.”
With the emergence of second-year wide receiver Mike Wallace and rookie Emmanuel Sanders, the Steelers shouldn’t have much of a problem transitioning Ward out of the receiving corp.

HAVE YOU SEEN EITHER GUY LAY OUT someone like ED REED?! Hines is a beast, a man amongst boys when it comes to helping his team with run blocking…and yes, this is STILL the PITTSBURGH STEELERS!! WE like RUNNING THE BALL, even if Bruce Arians is our OC!
