After putting together a very strong spring that saw him earn plenty of praise from position coach Karl Dunbar, third-year Pittsburgh Steelers defensive lineman DeMarvin Leal has had a very strong training camp at Saint Vincent College in Latrobe.
That continued Friday night in the preseason opener against the Houston Texans.
Leal recorded a sack in the Steelers’ 20-12 loss to the Texans, taking down quarterback Davis Mills for the 11-yard loss, generating a splash play for the defense.
Speaking to Steelers.com’s Missi Matthews after the game, Leal said his goal going into the game was to show the Steelers exactly what he could do and what is ahead for him this season.
