Pittsburgh Steelers rookie CB Beanie Bishop Jr. debuted last night, logging a total of 20 defensive snaps. He opened the game as the team’s starting slot cornerback, coming on the field for the second defensive snap.
In total, he registered four tackles during his time on the field defensively, also playing on special teams. So where does that leave Bishop in the eyes of head coach Mike Tomlin? Is he more confident in the rookie as the potential starting slot corner than he was going in?
“It does not”, Tomlin said, solidify his confidence in Bishop.
