Snoop Dogg has gotten his wish.
Two days after kicker Josh Scobee missed a pair of field goals (and nearly missed two others), the Steelers have sent packing the man for whom they gave up a sixth-round pick to the Jaguars in 2016.
The Steelers have announced that kicker Chris Boswell is in, and Scobee is out.
“Get the f–k outta here Josh Scobee,” Snoop Dogg said on Instagram after Thursday night’s loss to the Ravens. “We need to get rid of that motherf–ker. He’s sorry as f–k. He was sorry in Jacksonville, he’s sorry with us. Get his ass out of here. Bye bye bitch. Sorry motherf–ker you.”
Scobee takes with him, if he chooses to pursue it, the balance of his $2.5 million base salary, as termination pay. It’s a total of $1.91 million in unearned salary to which he’s entitled under the labor deal.
Scobee becomes a free agent, free to sign with any other team and to keep whatever he gets from another team on top of his termination pay from Pittsburgh.
