Steelers, Simmons Talking Extension

Post-Gazette - The Steelers are trying to sign their starting guard to a contract extension before the end of next week, but it's not Alan Faneca.

"We've been talking and both sides are trying to get something done before the start of the season,'' said Simmons' agent, Eric Metz.

Simmons supposedly was in competition for his job with backup Chris Kemoeatu, but early in training camp he reasserted himself as the starter and the Steelers decided to try to lock him up for the future. [READ]
