The Pittsburgh Steelers’ history at the linebacker position is second to none. Across their history, it’s an organization that’s drafted and developed or signed mean, nasty linebackers who can change the game at a moment’s notice. From Jack Lambert and Jack Ham to the Blitzburgh defenses with Greg Lloyd and Kevin Greene, to the Joey Porter and Jason Gildon days, to now with Alex Highsmith and T.J. Watt, the Pittsburgh Steelers history at linebacker is rich.
One other name who joined those ranks was Chad Brown, who spent the first four seasons of his career with Pittsburgh and became an All-Pro in the 1996 season.
