The Steelers have made their decision after working out some veteran kickers this morning.

According to agent Erik Burkhardt, the Steelers have signed former Saints kicker Garrett Hartley.

He was picked after they also worked out Jay Feely and Alex Henery.

Hartley filled in the last two games of last year for the Browns, and other than 2013 (when he hit just 73.3 percent of his field goals), has been a reasonably acceptable professional kicker.

The Steelers needed to replace Shaun Suisham after he tore an ACL.
