After attempts by Kevin Colbert to tone down the talk of the Steelers locker room being in total disarray comes from Hines Ward that the Steelers locker was in ``total disarray.’’

A year removed from being part of the Steelers, Hines Ward sees "a locker room in disarray."

Ward, who retired after the 2012 season, told the NFL Network that you wouldn't hear quotes about in-house friction -- like the anonymous one about LaMarr Woodley -- if he was still part of the team. The Steelers parted ways with several strong leaders in Ward, linebacker James Farrior and defensive end Aaron Smith at the same time, which many think is a reason why the locker room is coming unglued.

"When you lose so much leadership in the locker room, that's when things present itself like that," Ward said. "Guys start finger-pointing, calling out other guys. That is not the Steeler way. We've always had a rule: We are a band of brothers. We've always collectively kept everything in house. ... But there was no finger-pointing and calling each other out. That's a total disarray, a locker room in disarray."
