This devasting loss brings up issues facing the Steelers’ future defensive production. The Steelers are going to be looking for answers to continue their recent surge toward success. Here are my thoughts on how the Steelers can manage to be successful despite the loss of this great veteran talent.
#Steelers losing DE Stephon Tuitt is huge. He's their best DL this year. Yes, even outplaying All-Pro teammate DE Cameron Heyward. #HereWeGo
A player who I believed was playing at an All-Pro level, Tuitt was arguably the team’s best defensive player, even outshining his All-Pro teammate DE Cameron Heyward through the first five games of the season.
