| The last time Pittsburgh Steelers free safety Ryan Clark played an NFL game in Denver (Oct. 21, 2007), he became "almost deathly ill, eventually had his spleen and gall bladder removed during surgery, lost 30 pounds and did not play again that season," according to the Pittsburgh Post-Gazette. Clark suffered a medical reaction in his blood because of the sickle cell trait. This season, the Steelers travel to Denver for a Monday night matchup against the Broncos, and though Clark has received medical clearance to play, some of his teammates are speaking out on the matter. Receiver Hines Ward told the newspaper on Monday afternoon: "If it were me, no I wouldn't go. You know what? Football's second when it comes to someone's life. Life is more important than football to me." Source: The Sporting News |

| I think he'll play but I think he'll be on a "pitch count." We'll see plenty of Tyrone Carter...

| I would go and play some. Like 86 said, he will be on a play count and be monitored on the sideline to make sure he can still be out there. Tyrone is going to have to step up this week for sure.
