Garrett Hartley is heading to join the Pittsburgh Steelers, according to his agent Erik Burkhardt.
Congrats to @GHartley5 on signing with the @steelers ! He has continued to work hard at his craft and is ready for a big season.

Hartley is joining the Steelers due to Shaun Suisham tearing his ACL on a kickoff in the Hall of Fame Game. Suisham will undergo surgery on his left knee this week and will likely miss the entire season.
Hartley previously spent 6 years with the New Orleans Saints and 1 with the Cleveland Browns. He is a career 82% field goal kicker.
