A source with the Pittsburgh Steelers revealed to SteelCityInsider.com that Aaron Smith will undergo surgery on his right rotator cuff on Friday, and that he won't be able to play for at least three months. That would leave the Steelers' valuable defensive left end unavailable until the middle of January, meaning Mike Tomlin must make a decision similar to the one Bill Cowher faced in 1995, when he left open a roster space for Rod Woodson, who made it back for that season's Super Bowl after tearing an ACL in the opener. Tomlin said Smith suffered the injury Sunday against the Detroit Lions.
