As it turns out, Redskins coach Mike Shanahan is still looking for his wallet.

Earlier this week, reports emerged that Shanahan realized $3,700 in cash and his passport were missing from a bag he brought to Heinz Field in Pittsburgh. Per the reports, Shanahan filed a police report before finding the money in another bag.

The Redskins say that the first part of that is true, but the second part isn’t.

“Mike Shanahan did have money and a passport stolen out of his locker room in Pittsburgh,” Redskins director of security Ed Burke said in a statement. “The Pittsburgh Police insisted on filing a police report because of the missing passport.

“There is an ongoing investigation. The missing property was not stowed in another bag as reported.”

So there you have it. While playing the Steelers, a stealer struck.

Yeah, I’ve been waiting for like two days to use that.
