Here we do again. The Pittsburgh Steelers have re-re-signed running back Najeh Davenport.

This will be Dookie's third stint with the Steelers this year. He was cut in June ... re-signed in October ... then cut again three weeks ago. In his four games played this season, he has carried the ball just twice for five yards.

Despite Pittsburgh's record, they are having a tough time running the football this year. They are the NFL's fourth-worst rushing team in terms of yards-per-carry. Willie Parker has missed a lot of time this year with knee and shoulder issues and Rashard Mendenhall has been lost for the season.

The Steelers need the help as they face some stout rush defenses. They have a huge game in New England on Sunday, host Dallas then travel to Baltimore and Tennessee.
