Just as he was about the team trading Diontae Johnson, former Pittsburgh Steelers executive Doug Whaley isn’t thrilled with the team’s handling of the cornerback room. Signing Cam Sutton appeared to be their answer to fill the slot role but hit with a hefty eight-game suspension, the team must find an alternative to him for the first half of the year. To Whaley, these moves without true replacements signal the wrong motives.

“Those two moves right there. It almost comes to me like they made those decisions personal,” Whaley said on 93.7 The Fan Wednesday morning.
