The Pittsburgh Steelers lost two inside linebackers from their 2019 team during the offseason as Mark Barron was released and Tyler Matakevich signed with the Buffalo Bills as an unrestricted free agent. Their departures now set up a golden opportunity in 2020 for inside linebacker Ulysses Gilbert III to be the primary backup to Devin Bush and Vince Williams. On Tuesday, Bush held a video teleconference with the media and during it he was asked about Gilbert and if he thinks the Akron product can be more than just a special teams contributor in his second season.
