Steelers fans and media personnel thought they had things just about figured out with Pittsburgh’s starting lineup in 2021. That is until they threw us a curveball to open up training camp. Contrary to what we had thought, the team’s initial depth chart has a few surprises.
Perhaps the biggest surprises come at the nickel cornerback position. Most believe that James Pierre or even Justin Layne would be in line for a much larger role in the secondary this season.
