A few short months ago the outside linebacker room in Pittsburgh, at least from a depth perspective behind the likes of T.J. Watt and Alex Highsmith, looked like a major weakness overall with some unknowns.
Now, through the four days of practice at training camp, the outside linebacker group looks rather strong overall, dominating the early portion of camp and making life difficult for the offense in the passing game.
It’s still far too early and we’ll see what happens once the pads come on Tuesday at Chuck Noll Field in Latrobe, but through four practices the outside linebacker room looks like a strength of the Steelers roster for the first time in a long time.
