 Dixon wore the #2 during his first two seasons with the Steelers, but after the trade of Santonio Holmes, Dixon took #10, his college number.With Roethlisberger being suspended for four games to start the 2010 season, Byron Leftwich was named the Steelers' starter.Even though Dixon threw two interceptions in his only preseason start, a serious knee injury to Leftwich during the preseason finale led to Dixon being named the opening day starter.
