Pittsburgh, PA (My Sportsbook) - The Pittsburgh Steelers retained the services of Willie Colon, inking the restricted free agent offensive tackle to a one-year contract. Colon, who will turn 26 on April 9, was originally selected by the Steelers in the fourth round of the 2006 NFL Draft. He has started every game at right tackle for Pittsburgh over the last two years. The Steelers first inserted Colon into the starting lineup after right tackle Max Starks went down with an injury late in the 2006 season. Colon has been the starter ever since and helped the team to a Super Bowl championship last season.
