While all eyes are deservedly on the Pittsburgh Steelers’ quarterback competition, there’s a competition on the defensive side of the ball that needs solving, too. Who will start the season as the slot cornerback?
The Steelers brought Cam Sutton back who starred at the position, but he is suspended for the first 10 games of the season. So if all is well, he will finish the season in the slot. Perhaps he might even help out at safety. But who will be in the slot in Week 1? Is it a tough decision?
“It’s not hard because there’s nobody there,’ said defensive coordinator Teryl Austin on Tuesday per video from Yardbarker’s Aaron Becker on X/Twitter.
