When it comes to the defensive side of the ball for the Pittsburgh Steelers, there is one position that seems to be open for competition that most people wish wasn’t so open at inside linebacker. Then there is another at outside linebacker that doesn’t appear to be open that people wish was. And then there’s right outside cornerback, where we’re really not quite sure where things stand.
Artie Burns has been the starting right outside cornerback on a full-time, basically every-snap basis for about a season and a half, but had been playing there since the first game of his rookie season in the dime package, and then the nickel.
