Latrobe, Pa. • The Pittsburgh Steelers have given kicker Shaun Suisham a four-year contract extension that runs through the 2018 season.
The team made the announcement on Friday. He's made 95-of-109 field goals and all 128 extra points for 412 points since 2010.
Suisham established a team record in 2013, connecting on 30-of-32 field goal attempts for a 93.8 percent conversion rate. He ranks first in team history with an 87.2 percent field goal conversion mark and fifth in field goals made with 95.
Suisham, an undrafted free agent out of Bowling Green, entered the league with Pittsburgh in 2005 before two stints with the Dallas Cowboys and Washington Redskins.
