Pittsburgh Steelers rookie defensive lineman Keeanu Benton is expected to contribute a lot this season with many expecting him to take over the starting nose tackle spot from Montravius Adams. However that is not set in stone and Benton will have to prove himself in OTAs, training camp, and in preseason games. But, early on in OTAs Benton has impressed fellow defensive lineman and captain Cameron Heyward.

Before Day Two of OTAs Heyward spoke with the media and was asked what he thought of Benton after one practice.

“Good,” Heyward told reporters on a video posted to Steelers.
