Steelers owner against expanding replay

Replay expansion figures to be the biggest topic of discussion at the upcoming annual league meeting, but Pittsburgh Steelers owner Art Rooney II has already decided his position on the issue.

"I'm not really excited to have replay expanded, and we'll approach it with that in mind," he said, according to Bob Labriola of Steelers.com.

"The length of the game, I would not want to see the length of the game be expanded. We need to continually go in the other direction," he continued, according to Mark Kaboly of The Athletic.

Changes to replay procedures are expected to be considered after the no-call in the NFC Championship Game made national headlines.

Rooney said he'd be willing to listen to a proposal to add an eighth official to monitor things from a booth but doesn't want another one on the field, reports Labriola.
