Less than a month after drafting a punter, the Steelers released veteran Chris Gardocki. The Steelers selected Daniel Sepulveda of Baylor - the highest-rated punter - in the fourth round of the April 29 draft. That was a clear signal that Gardocki's days were numbered in Pittsburgh. Gardocki is best known for never having a punt blocked in his 16-year career. He signed with the Steelers in 2004 and averaged 42.1 yards over the last three seasons.
