Although Tyler Matakevich never really made a huge impact as a linebacker during his first stint with the Pittsburgh Steelers, he was an excellent special teamer. Matakevich was selected in the seventh round of the 2016 NFL Draft and spent the first four years of his career in Pittsburgh, contributing heavily to special teams coach Danny Smith’s units.
After a four-year stint with the Buffalo Bills where he was a special teams captain, Matakevich returned to the Steelers this offseason and is back in Latrobe, Pa., for training camp. Matakevich spoke Sunday with reporters and said he was very happy to be back at historic Saint Vincent College.
