As the Steelers prepare to take on the Arizona Cardinals in Super Bowl XLIII, several players shared their “Super Bowl Journey” with Teresa Varley.

The journey as to how they came to Pittsburgh, how they made it on the roster varies from player to player, but the ultimate dream remains the same – winning a Super Bowl Championship.

Cornerback Anthony Madison originally signed with the Steelers as a rookie free agent in 2006, missing out on a Super Bowl by just a year. He was released before the season started and signed to the team’s practice squad. In 2007, he was waived again and this time he was signed by Tampa Bay. But not long after joining them, he was waived and about a month or so later, was back with the Steelers on the active roster.


Madison is a persistent guy, though. He is someone who doesn’t give up on himself, doesn’t let the ups and downs that come with an NFL career get him down. He kept fighting and this season, there was nobody calling him to ‘bring his playbook’ and get cut. Not at all. Madison made the final roster this year and has been a special team’s ace for the team.

Below Madison shares in his own words what brought him to Pittsburgh and what the journey to Super Bowl XLIII has been like for him.
