The Pittsburgh Steelers’ cornerback depth chart, with Cory Trice Jr. very much in the mix, is—interesting, in a word. Put simply, they don’t exactly have much experience behind their starters, Joey Porter Jr. and Donte Jackson. But the only way for people without experience to gain experience is to play. The Steelers clearly think there is something to Trice, and Brian Batko agrees.
“If the groin is okay from the third preseason game, then [Trice is] a solid top backup at outside cornerback”, Batko told Joe Starkey on 93.7 The Fan this week. While it’s nice to hear, the Steelers had better hope it’s true.
