Steelers released WR Arnaz Battle. The move takes Pittsburgh off the hook for Battle's $1.04 million base salary. Battle, 32, was not an offensive contributor in 2011, appearing in 10 games and failing to record a reception. He did have four special teams tackles.

Steelers WR Arnaz Battle left Sunday's Week 9 game due to a minor hamstring injury. He merely offers depth to the Steelers' receiving corps, and any absence would have little to no fantasy impact.
