Film Room: Pittsburgh’s New Pass-Rush Package

Related Topics: Alex Highsmith

For just a handful of practices one day in a long training camp, the Pittsburgh Steelers teased their new pass-rush package. Harkening back to the Dick LeBeau days of the Amoeba front with just one down lineman, the Steelers found one way to get their top three outside linebackers on the field: T.J. Watt, Alex Highsmith, and Nick Herbig out there at the same time. What they evidently refer to as their “Bronco package.”

In Latrobe, they used it during a two-minute drill. Then they tucked it away for the rest of camp and the preseason.
