"We're extremely disappointed with this incident," team chairman Dan Rooney told reporters. "The Steelers do not condone violence of any kind, especially against women."

Wilson, a backup receiver, is the second Steelers player arrested this month on charges that he assaulted a woman.

Linebacker James Harrison, voted the Steelers' MVP by his teammates last season, was charged with simple assault and criminal mischief for allegedly hitting his girlfriend on March 8. He faces a preliminary hearing April 3.

Harrison remains with the team. Team spokesman Dave Lockett said the Steelers viewed Harrison's situation differently than Wilson's, but would not say why.

Hypocrites. If Big Ben needed him he wouldnt have been cut. What a way to show a stand Mr. Rooney.
