Greene: 'Steelers players are greedy'

Former Pittsburgh Steelers player Joe Greene has slammed the franchise's current players for greediness that he feels is harming the club.

Greene said that the players always want a bigger contract than their teammates, an attitude which "disrupts" the franchise.

"The scary thing is that players have a one-upsmanship about money; they sign a contract and they like it until someone signs a bigger one and now they don't like it," Greene told the Pittsburgh Gazette.

"I don't like that. I don't begrudge anyone money but it disrupts the football team."

The former defensive tackle is a 10-time Pro Bowler.
