A week ago today, the Pittsburgh Steelers officially welcomed the opportunity to add veteran inside linebacker Joe Schobert into the fold, and it didn’t take long for them to install him into their system. He saw his first on-field action during last night’s preseason game, over the course of which he wore the green dot and played into the second half.
As it naturally would under such pressing circumstances, the night left something to be desired for a player with such a substantial resume as he, something that he readily acknowledged, finishing the game with just three tackles, one of which came only after he trailed in coverage on a play and failed to bring the receiver down prior to moving the sticks.
