BREAKING NEWS: Cordarrelle Patterson Sounds Off After Steelers Release – “I Wasn’t Utilized Here, I’m Going to Show the League”
In a stunning turn of events that’s sending shockwaves across the NFL, All-Pro running back and wide receiver Cordarrelle Patterson has been released by the Pittsburgh Steelers. Just moments after the news broke, Patterson took to social media with a fiery and emotional statement aimed directly at his now-former team.
“I wasn’t utilized here. I’ve still got gas in the tank, and I’m going to show the league exactly what they gave up on,” Patterson posted.
The 33-year-old veteran, widely regarded as one of the most dynamic and versatile players in the league, joined the Steelers amid much fanfare. Known for his explosive kick returns, elusive rushing, and clutch receiving ability, Patterson was expected to bring a spark to Pittsburgh’s offense. However, fans quickly noticed that he was rarely given opportunities to shine under the current offensive scheme.
During his time with the Steelers, Patterson saw limited action, often relegated to special teams or used in predictable plays that rarely capitalized on his unique skill set. His frustration grew, and now, after being cut from the roster, he’s not holding back.
Social media erupted following Patterson’s post, with fans and analysts alike expressing disbelief that Pittsburgh failed to make better use of the four-time All-Pro. NFL insider Ian Rapoport tweeted, “Patterson still has game. A contender with creativity will pick him up fast.”
Indeed, several playoff-caliber teams are rumored to already be expressing interest, including the Miami Dolphins, San Francisco 49ers, and Kansas City Chiefs—teams known for their creative offensive play-calling.
Patterson’s message is clear: he’s not done. In fact, he’s just getting started.
“I’ll be back. Stronger, faster, and more dangerous than ever. Bet on that,” he added later in a follow-up post.
As the league braces for another season filled with surprises, one thing is certain—wherever Cordarrelle Patterson lands next, he’ll be playing with a chip on his shoulder and a point to prove.
Stay tuned. This story is far from over.
