The Pittsburgh Steelers bolstered their cornerback room with the addition of CB Darius Slay, and in his introductory press conference on Thursday, he said that his excitement to come to Pittsburgh was aided by some current and former players. Slay shouted out Patrick Peterson, Joe Haden and Cameron Heyward for helping sell him on Pittsburgh as a place to play.
“A lot of players that I looked up to as players came here and just always told me great things. Pat [Peterson], Joe Haden was one of my favorite corners growing up when I was young…and Cam [Heyward], Cam did a great job,” Slay said via the team’s YouTube channel.
