    Haha...it wasnt anybody on the team. Just some actor put in a random jersey (though probably specifically one thats not being used).

    Just like in the Old Spice commercial with Welker he's the only real Bronco...and same with (i think this one was old spice too) Mayo the LB from the Pats.

    Wasn't Tim Worley the last meaningful steeler (at least, he wasn't a no-name) who used that number?

    Thanks for asking Coastal. I was too shy to ask.. Did some own research and found out there is no #38 on roster presently so I surmised it was an actor

    John Clay wore it late 2011 if I remember correctly. Think he got hurt in camp 2012 and was cut?

    Yeah he was a heck of a college player and seemed like he had the skill to play in the NFL. Wonder what happened other than the injury?

    There's a video of Worley on Youtube getting tasered by police a few years ago. He was suspended in Pittsburgh for cocaine and a DUI. Trouble just seemed to follow that guy.

    Yep, he had major issues. Chuck Noll drafted him and said Worley reminded him of a young Jim Brown. Pretty heady stuff. What could have been. I'm glad Worley finally got his life on track, even if it was too late for football.
