Jon Bostic Still Proving Himself, Says Shazier’s Presence Is ‘Big Just For Our Defense’

The Pittsburgh Steelers are going to have a new player at the starting mack linebacker position this year. Whether that’s ‘new to the team’ or ‘new to a starting role’ remains to be seen, but if it ends up being free agent signing Jon Bostic, it will be the former.

A former second-round draft pick back in 2013, Bostic has had a circuitous career that has taken him to many different cities in a relatively short amount of time, a path set off by bad lucky with injuries and a series of coaching changes that have affected his value to his teams.
